The providers both have ResolveToDataset set to true, which means that when I call ApplyUpdates, the updates should only be sent to the TIBOTable dataset and not to the database.

(And if I were to apply the updates in the opposite order, it would error on inserts to M instead. And this is a UI-driven operation, where it's quite possible to get both inserts and deletes in the same batch of updates.)
