I can confirm that if I send JSON messages that always cover all schema fields the tombstone issue is not reported by Cassandra. So, is there a way to work around this issue other than to always populate every column of the schema with every insert? That would be a pain in the backside, really.
Why would C* not warn about the excessive number of tombstones if queried from cqlsh? Thanks!
