This can break the checks we have eg https://github.com/SigNoz/signoz-otel-collector/blob/a9b7c298e835bde41b4a447eeeaadc0449f4096d/cmd/signozschemamigrator/schema_migrator/traces_migrations.go#L363
Issues that we faced:
Research:
- Understand when parent id is being injected in consumer spans (semantic conventions, and implementation of it), and when parent id is injected as span links in consumer spans
