Which is precisely why I don't like it. You should have to worry about
it if the goal is education. Then you can devise any number of methods
to suit your desires/needs and BLFS would be the guide to that.


Fine. Here is an another suggestion.

We started a long list, but we comment out those ones that are not used
in LFS. Whenever BLFS needs it, it can change it using sed or create one
using useradd.

For those who don't need the education, simply change the file to whatever
they need.
For those who want the education, they can still follow the book and create
the users/groups as the build goes.

No matter which way they choose, we have an unified UID/GID combination.
