In that case I don't understand why the author didn't go for uuidv7? It seems like existing tooling (both in database and outside) deals with it better, it seems like there are no downsides unless you expect your identifiers to be generated past 4147 but don't care if they are generated past 10889 (I'd love to hear that use-case, seems like it must be interesting).
