I agree. I'm just being modest - as you may have noticed, I have a bigger
output in verbs and semi-good ideas than in code, so when I get around
publishing code I try to limit the scope of the change and leave the stuff
with impact to the experts.

Is it an issue? The code is called once at the first call and then once in
100,000 UUID's.
