      We use a $max to update the minvalid which updates the timestamp and term independently: https://github.com/mongodb/mongo/blob/2197cedd9cc61cba6ceb81affc348d3e3932c1b8/src/mongo/db/repl/replication_consistency_markers_impl.cpp#L188-L192.

      If we provide a timestamp that is greater than the current minValid, but a term that is less, we can end up with a minValid that never existed. This occurs primarily on protocol version downgrade and can lead to us being unable to choose a sync source.
