Re:Unexpected downsides of UUID keys in PostgreSQL

Absolutely, these are also good things to take into account. There are really situations for all of these things, and this is why I don't like the approach of trying to "solve" this problem. Lots of people say "UUIDs solve IDs", or "UUIDs cause too many issues to use", or "ULIDs solve UUID issues", and in reality this is just another place where there are trade-offs, and what works for one company/project/dbms/table may not work for another, or may even cease to work over time as requirements or scale change.
