I'm curious why they specify the UUID must have dashes in string format. It makes the UUID difficult to select with a double click.

As with IP addresses, UX/DX is not the primary concern

Try a triple-click.

you do understand that they existed way before the mouse and button became the norm ?

I think widespread mouse usage and early uuid usage was similar in time, 1980's to early 1990's.
Not sure when the "doucle-click to select" UI paradigm became common though.
