Yes, that's the way I took what he said as well.

Bzr revnos (dotted or otherwise) can not be guaranteed to be stable
in a truly distributed system.   Now it's clear that you folks
just don't really care about that and you're happy enough that they
work out fine for your uses.  That's a fair enough decision to make;
there's no law that says you have to care about the situations where
there will be clashes and/or the numbers will change.  Git makes
a different choice, and for my money it's a better choice.

Cheers,
