Well that's a single StateBackend. In order to say that "Checkpoints
support rescaling" this must apply to all StateBackends, which AFAIK is
not the case.

it said "Checkpoints have a few differences from savepoints, they do not support Flink
specific features like rescaling."
However, if you just take a look at RocksDB-StateBackend's code, you could see
clearly that RocksDBStateBackend support rescaling from previous checkpoint.
Could anyone give an explanation?
