We know because nobody ever showed any code or design that actually enables
other usecases.
To me its rather simple; if something called an “ID” is not actually usable
as an immutable identifier, and we know that there are plenty of usecases
(including stuff we use daily) which demands it to actually be an immutable
identifier, then obviously we should provide a way to make it do what it was
meant to do.
