Yeah, I think the understandable confusion comes from the idea that a UUID "obscures" the sequential identity of the id in the same way a password mask obscures a password, but the obscurity in security through obscurity refers to reliance on an attacker's ignorance of implementation details to secure the system rather than on a mechanism that is provably secure.
