    Using UUIDs for user ids in Laravel Nova

I recently created a project where I wanted my user's to be represented with a uuid.
UUID v7 allows for a balanced option between randomly generated, unpredictable user IDs, and sequential IDs.
The first few characters of a UUID v7 are based on the current timestamp, allowing for the IDs to be sorted.
This is ideal I thought...
