What's the significance of the UUID `identifier` in the .nova folder?

This might be more of a question about using Nova than about the Playdate SDK. But I'll ask it here anyway.

In the SDK, there's a "Game Template" folder in "Examples". It's got a task in the .nova folder with this ID:

EA7875DC-3ABA-42BB-976B-9F348052F6C7

What is this ID for? Is there any concern about it being public?

Here it is in context:

157912478-fe2ef27c-dbc0-4d64-8a28-8954fd6d6fce

I believe it's a uuid only for this task. It allows multiple tasks of the same type without having naming conflicts.
