The comment above warns against it due to the embedded timestamp info as a info leak risk. Perhaps that was a problem for them in some circumstance.

It wasn’t a problem for me directly but was observed and related by a colleague: an identifier for an acquired entity embedded the record’s creation timestamp and effectively leaked the date of acquisition despite it being commercial-in-confidence information. Cue post-M&A ruckus at board level.

Just goes to show you can’t inadvertently disclose anything these days.
