What's wrong with an incrementing index?

An incrementing index suggests comparison. If you are closer to friend #35 than you are to friend #8, it can feel strange to be exposed to that kind of numbering.

My concern was that it seems like the person ID is shared with all users.

The first person I added was somewhere in the 2000s, rather than starting at 1.
