> As pointed out by several resources (for example [this blog 
> post|https://vladmihalcea.com/uuid-database-primary-key/]), UUID version 4 
> are not particularly suitable as primary key identifiers, mainly because of 
> their [random 
> nature|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universally_unique_identifier#Version_4_(random)]
>  which can cause issues with B-Tree database indexes.
> As pointed out, a better solution is to use [UUID version 
> 7|https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-peabody-dispatch-new-uuid-format-04.html#name-uuid-version-7],
>  time-based UUID bit layout sourced from the widely implemented and well 
> known Unix Epoch timestamp source.
