Assuming strict monotonicity seems quite limiting as it means the backend has to be much more complex.
Can we change pagination to support loose monotonicity, so that the display order is not entirely consistent but at least we don't potential items that have the same seek value.
In this case we probably cannot use exclusive comparison operators. But this also means pagination will return repeated values, and the FE will need to throw away values it has already seen before somehow.
