Summary:
In normal use cases, meta info like column family's timestamp size is tracked at the transaction layer, so it's not necessary and even detrimental to track such info inside the internal WriteBatch because it may let anti-patterns like bypassing Transaction write APIs and directly write to its internal WriteBatch like this:
9d0a754dc9/storage/rocksdb/ha_rocksdb.cc (L4949-L4950)
Setting this option to true will keep aforementioned use case continue to work before it's refactored out. This option is only for this purpose and it will be gradually deprecated after aforementioned MyRocks use case are refactored.

RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage
RocksDB is developed and maintained by Facebook Database Engineering Team.
It is built on earlier work on LevelDB by Sanjay Ghemawat (sanjay@google.com)
and Jeff Dean (jeff@google.com)
This code is a library that forms the core building block for a fast
key-value server, especially suited for storing data on flash drives.
It has a Log-Structured-Merge-Database (LSM) design with flexible tradeoffs
between Write-Amplification-Factor (WAF), Read-Amplification-Factor (RAF)
and Space-Amplification-Factor (SAF). It has multi-threaded compactions,
making it especially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a
single database.
The public interface is in include/. Callers should not include or
rely on the details of any other header files in this package. Those
internal APIs may be changed without warning.
RocksDB is dual-licensed under both the GPLv2 (found in the COPYING file in the root directory) and Apache 2.0 License (found in the LICENSE.Apache file in the root directory). You may select, at your option, one of the above-listed licenses.
