// Insert this transaction to the SLE's threading list

// threaded during the provisional pass.
// - Restoring the original state for all affected SLEs in a single batch
// after the entire provisional metadata generation is complete.
//
// This batch-restore is critical because threadItem() can be called on the

// would be incorrect. This approach ensures the final metadata comparison
