Hello,

Command Prompt has been teaching alot of classes lately, and one of the
questions that I received recently was:

What is the use case for a READ ONLY transaction?

I haven't been able to come up with a good answer. Anyone got a use case
for this feature? I know the community didn't implement it for giggles.

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
