As far as I understand it you do not need initrd to use UUIDs.
I need initrd to launch udev so early so I can use the symlinks
in /etc/fstab . With init and 10udev it is too late.

There are potentially two UUIDs for a partition. The filesystem (ext4, etc_ and with GPT, the partition GUID, The kernel understands root=PARTUUID=abcdef...123 but not the filesystem UUID. For that you need an initrd.
