Yes. So I was stupid at the time.But sometimes I can't use sql ransaction. Because maybe I are calling an external api or other operation.

CVE-2017-16871 In fact, it is not common in php (golang is more). It is hard exploit and hard to find, but I can't ignore it, which leads me to check code like multi-step sql operation frequently.
