Description

Under RC isolation, FK checks use locked reads in order to avoid anomalies that would invalidate the FK check. But, these locked reads require a trip to the leaseholder replica.

If the FK we're checking is in a global table, we might not need to go all the way to the leaseholder. It might suffice to check the region-local replica and rely upon the properties of the global table to avoid anomalies.
