Quite an interesting discussion. As someone who's mainly worked only with paths, I'm starting to find guids a better compromise. Renaming paths, having to create/read redirects or deal with different source of inconsistencies due to case insensitivity can be such a pain 🥴

guid vs path references, are two bad options:
paths? moving or renaming files will break references
guids? duplicating files will create ambiguous/invalid guid states
but, guids seem like the lesser evil to me, because moving/renaming files is *significantly* more common than duplication
