      The following scenario can occur:

      1. Transaction coordinator on shard X makes a commit/abort decision after hearing from all participants
      2. Shard X is removed and shut down before transaction coordinator sends decision to participant shards
      3. Participant shards are stuck permanently with prepared transactions
