suppose we have non-acid table with some data An insert op starts (long running) An alter table runs to add (transactional=true) An update is run which will read the list of "original" files and assign IDs on the fly which are written to a delta file. The long running insert completes. Another update is run which now sees a different set of "original" files and will (most likely) assign different IDs.
