The OP's problem is solved, so the point is no longer relevant.
I'm curious to know what your "well-developed sense of all of that" does when in lieu
of auto-incrementing fields, and why.
The only legitimate reason I've ever come across to avoid them is when you expect to need to
partition data across multiple master DB servers. Is this why you avoid them?
