Hello, If you set a ttl and expire a column, I've read that this eventually turns into a tombstone and will be cleaned out by the GC. Are expirations considered a form of delete that still requires a node repair to be run in gc_grace_period seconds? The operations guide says you have to run node repair if you have deletes, so I'm trying to find out if we can upsert the column with expirations using a ttl=1 to substitute deletes. The node repair operations is very intensive in our environment and causes a significant performance degradation on the system.
Thanks
