I think the biggest rabbit hole I went down was trying to use FEAL (which is very breakable) and exploiting the things that make it breakable. But this is very much not my area of expertise - I was learning as I was working - so it's very possible either that that was a dumb idea or that it was a great idea that I didn't figure out.
I also considered things like "focus on add lots of entropy to groups of 200 or so UUIDs, but have obvious patterns beyond that" which I think would be a reasonable strategy; here I just kind of ran out of time (I told myself I'd make this in a week)
Did some light reading about a few other things but nothing substantial
