Yep, so we need solutions for using these practices in a performant way rather than hearing they are not 'good' and then having to explain over and over again why they are there. Our datasets that use UUIDs have not had issues with performance but of course we keep looking for ways to keep using UUIDs while improving performance. It would be better to provide solutions on how to do that and spend time to get performance on par with int keys. Like someone else said; 32 bit int keys are no good anyway for many cases, so let's go to 128 bit, optimize for that and everyone is happy.
