Hi Francis, You write:

It will answer (as you mentioned correctly) itself. Since a UUID is a ByteArray it means it will answer a ByteArray (in contrary to your statement). To put it differently: The inheritance relation (UUID being a subclass of ByteArray) is a "IS-A" relation. So any UUID is a ByteArray. This means however the message "asByteArray" did not have to be send of course (it is already a ByteArray). I was not sure the class UUID was actually a subclass of ByteArray when writing my reply. Turns out it is.
