Well, from what I can tell, the code does something special. (It seems
to be merging something between the old and new objects - apparently the
ids and the "created" property, at least.)

Also, the old code set "updated = false" if oldUID was empty, and
"updated = true" if it was not, and it was my assumption that the
distinction was significant and should still be returned as different
cases - especially since the new enum type ought to be more expressive
than the old boolean, not less?

What is it supposed to do instead?
