The machine generation is eady for modules that don’t have a SID history.
Always generating SIDs at IANA would mean that IANA would need to maintain the SID history as well.
As I mentioned when discussion draft evolution, that may be finer grained than what IANA cares about.
So how do we feed the history to IANA?
