If we encounter
OffsetOutOfRange
this means that the start offset ofthe stream lies outside of the range that Kafka knows. In this case we
should not hot-loop and try to poll new data forever, since this is very
likely NOT intended.
The only use case I could come up with is to start a stream at some "yet
to be produced" offset, but I fail to come up with a practical reasoning
behind this as well as a method to dermine the start offset for such a
use case.
So most users are likely interested to subscribe to data that already
exists within the system.
