Per the following link:

To get a snapshot we need to know xmin, xmax and xip. my question is why do
we need them? Since every tuple in a page has t_xmin and t_xmax based on
the page layout(
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/storage-page-layout.html), if we
has a snapshot at xip 12345, couldn't we just check every tuple whose
t_xmin is lower than 12345 and already committed?
Thanks,
