So what? What’s missing is that unless something depends on the ordering of those ids, it really isn’t a race condition. Just plain happening of events is the inevitable passage of time, not a race condition. What is interesting about what happens downstream with those IDs?

You’re not wrong that not all race conditions are harmful, but i feel you’re doing a pretty bad job of explaining what a race condition is.
