Fossil uses unique prefixes of checksums as identifiers.

No, it does not. Fossil stores full identifiers

I was referring only to the display.  Full identifiers are usually shown
only in detail pages and the actual manifests.

and allows you to search for commits by prefix. IOW the prefix thing
is a pure convenience to reduce the amount of stuff to enter.

Understood, but this convenience feature feeds back into the database
when the user enters a prefix into a commit comment or a ticket or a
wiki page.
