Yeah, but that collision probably doesn’t matter because there’s a bunch of other variables that need to come together for it to be an issue at all.

If the schema id is the message id, in principle it could be an issue as the protocol on the wite would be ambiguous. Then again, you should be able to detect any collisions when you register a schema with the schema repo and deal with it at that time.
