A Transaction Holds Its Connection for Its Entire Duration

This is spine step five, resting on the finite connection limit and the pool nodes in the database sub-domain, and it is the node that gives the sub-domain a number rather than an intuition. It is the reason the open-across-an-external-call node is an outage rather than a style complaint, and it is what makes the cost of holding a row lock measurable.
