This is not true. While it's intended for MAC addresses to be unique, there are plenty of instances where manufacturers re-use MACs when they run out instead of registering more.

Additionally, there is no issue with multiple devices having the same MAC address as long as they're never on the same Layer 2 domain.

As far as I know, IEEE is quite strict in this matter but I just searched for it now and have seen a couple of cases where people ran into duplicate MAC addresses.

I would assume this is a rare occurrence and if not, it should still be okay to sometimes run into address collisions for advertising purposes.

Thanks for the info.

You are arguing that mac addresses are not unique, however that doesn't mean it doesn't match/combine your data extremely well.
