Especially if you cache the requesting ipv4 address or IPv6 prefix for
24 hours or more. One GUSL allocation per IP per day is more than
enough.

I think that the complete uniqueness is a matter of psychology more than
anything else. Even if the odds of collisions with a hash or random are
no better than winning the lottery, there are some people that actually
win (not me, sigh). Given that Charlie could provide true uniqueness for
free, why consider a system that does not provide true uniqueness?
