This is why the oldschool UUIDv1 spec specifies initializing the sequence value at a random number:

“12.4.4 — The Clock Sequence shall be originally (that is, once in the lifetime of a system producing UUIDs) initialized to a random number that is not derived from the Node value. NOTE – This is in order to minimize the correlation across systems, providing maximum protection”
