Yeah, I think the key here is that you have to know what the limitations are. UUIDv7 does _not_ provide you with sorted and ordered IDs by creation time, it provides you with _kinda sorta_ sorted and ordered IDs by creation time. That's probably fine for a lot of use cases, but if it's not OK for yours (forensic accounting, risk mitigation for banks, whatever), you can't use it for that. You're right it's not a technical problem necessarily, but when the marketing material describes something without an asterisk, people who are unaware that what's being described is impossible at the limits can make bad system design decisions based on that promise. | ||
