And all US phone numbers have 7 digits. (It's easy enough to figure out the relevant area code.)

- anamax 15y ago> You are grasping at unrelated analogies and contexts. You're claiming that 8 character ids are inherently public. Why is the "publicness" of 7 numeral ids an unrelated analogy? After all, the universe of 7 numeral ids is significantly smaller than the set of 8 character ids, so if the former is private (by obscurity) then surely the latter is as well, absent some other factor. So, what are some of these other factors?
