   - **`minimal`**: Locks only during the initial schema read, then releases while using a `REPEATABLE READ` transaction for consistency.
   - **`extended`**: Locks for the entire snapshot to avoid conflicts with concurrent operations.
   - **`none`**: No table locks; this is safe if no schema changes occur. MyISAM tables still lock by default.
