* Get a statistically unique 128-bit unsigned integer ID string.
* The bits of the UID are prefixed with the time (down to the microsecond).
*
- * Unlike timestampedUID64(), these IDs are suitable as UUIDs, without any enforced
- * uniqueness checks in the storage medium, such as a DB. Thus, this can be used to
- * make unique values of DB table column where the DBMS does not enforce uniqueness.
+ * These IDs are suitable as globally unique IDs, without any enforced uniqueness.
* New rows almost always have higher UIDs, which makes B-TREE updates on INSERT fast.
* They can also be stored reasonably as a "DECIMAL(39) UNSIGNED" in MySQL.
