The original UUID was from a record added in 2025 (about a year ago), and today the system inserted a new document with a fresh UUIDv4 and it came up with the exact same one:

Ask HN: How are you handling QA being bottlenecked with more AI-generated PRs?
At my company engineers are producing a high quantity of PRs with the help of AI agents. QA was already the bottleneck since the software involves camera flows across multiple devices, now this is more so the case.
