This is really a defective redesign. It reintroduced numeric IDs to

The new schema has been optimized as much as possible to allow maximum scalability as it will contain a massive amount of data that we hope it doubles or even triple in size as soon as we can.
The new schema has been optimized for your use cases and complete breaks any tools combining page table data with wikibase data. If you really would care about tool developers, you wouldn't trash the unprefixed ID.
