It's confusing because the standard only requires that the isolation
levels avoid certain read phenomena, but implementations are free to
go above and beyond. For example, you can ask Postgres for READ
UNCOMMITTED, but you'll get READ COMMITTED. (So RC, RR, and SI each
provide distinct behavior.)

That would be great. It could easily be relevant.
