Information leakage since they have a timestamp component. Some people may not care, but plenty of folks do. As others have said, anything security related likely should UUIDv4. UUIDv7 is basically an engineering compromise on security (they leak a timestamp) vs performance (random reads and writes to an index aren’t as performant as localized reads and writes).
