If that's true, surely it's using the epub's unique-id and not some random uuid included in the metadata being used, no? I would think the same issue would manifest regardless of what unique-id was used (uuid or ISBN or whathaveyou). In other words, there may be consequences for ANY unique-id value you forget to change/update.
