   @flyrain Thanks for taking a look. I think what might be confusing is 
`startSnapshotId` and `endSnapshotId` could be passed in or calculated from 
`startTimestamp` and `endTimestamp`. Skip scan is only possible in the latter 
case. That's why everything is inside `startTimestamp != null || endTimestamp 
!= null`. There are three cases we can skip scan based on the result of the 
calculation.
   
   1. both `startSnapshot` and `endSnapshot` are `null`
   2. `endSnapshot` is `null` (`endTimestamp == null` ensures this is from 
calculation)
   3. `startSnapshot` equals to `endSnapshot`
