 Due to the nature of Raft, there is a very small window (milliseconds) where a node has been disposed as leader, but has not yet changed its internal state. Therefore, even with the leader check in place, there is a very small window of time where out-of-date results could be returned. If you want to avoid even this possibility, add `verify` to the URL.
