Currently, since the introduction of "Tracing without Performance", we always set a negative sampling decision on the tracing context when there is not an active transaction. This could get problematic because we might overrule the sampling decisions for all downstream SDKs when there are no active transactions and when we're the head-SDK.
Per spec, it is allowed to leave away the sampling decision in the
sentry-trace
header. The use-case for this is to defer the sampling decision, which is exactly what we want to do.
