On some platforms (e.g. EFI on x86_64) the state backend can only be selected by a partiton UUID. On existing devices with a DOS partition table, there may be no spare partition available for state.
This makes it possible to select the disk via UUID. The exact position is defined by an explicitly specified offset.
