Wow, great improvement, thanks!
The "tutorial-transactions" opens a new question that might be useful to know: when a transaction enters the aborted state at an early point in time (as has now become clear), does this mean it will also relinquish any locks and predicate locks early, or will it still hold onto those until explicitly rolled back by command?

I think it would be good to mention that a failed COMMIT automatically
performs a ROLLBACK. Do you want to suggest a patch?
Feel free to review mine for this topic and suggest additions.
