Kind of funny title since I didn’t think UUIDv7 had any of the properties being disputed here. The reason to use UUIDv7 is because it reduces the space over which the UUID can cover at a given time, which improves write clustering. They don’t need to be strictly ordered for this, just “good enough”.
I hope to god no one is actually using the timestamp portion to replace an “updated at” timestamp but I suspect I’ll be disappointed.
