4c8e4a0 numbered each star it adds from the Exoplanet Archive by its place among the unmatched
hosts, in pl_name order, and the refresh workflow re-queries the archive every Monday. One host
added or dropped ahead of another renumbers it: in the review, removing a single planet row
renamed 3 276 of the 3 277 ids, and a bookmark kept on Kepler-186 (1070001620) opened Kepler-1860
under Kepler-186's stored name. HYG's and Gaia's ids do not move between refreshes; the merge's own
comment says ids are meant to hold.
archiveStarId (host-star-matching.ts, beside the matcher the ETL already imports from there) hashes
the host name with FNV-1a into the 3.7 million ids between 1 070 000 000 and 2^30, and moves a name
whose id is taken to the next free one. The added stars are sorted by id before they are appended,
so the published list stays in id order. Measured: all 4 237 archive-hosted planets change host id
once (Kepler-186 is now 1073671518), none of the others; one of the 3 277 names was probed past a
collision, and one new id falls in the old 1070000000-1070003276 range, so a bookmark saved on that
old id would open the wrong star once. Dropping the same row from a copy of the cached answer and
rerunning the exoplanet step in a scratch copy of the ETL now leaves 3 276 of 3 276 ids unchanged.
The validators pass: no duplicate id, all under 2^30.
Controls, each failing its named test: the id taken from the order of arrival, and no probing past
a taken id (1 of 801 each).
