Just a reminder,

We are starting to phase out the table, it will stop getting updated from end of the next week and will be dropped two or three weeks from now, the wb_terms table now have term_full_entity_id instead which is not replicated to labs yet [0] but it will very soon.

The original code predated SPARQL, so I have to change it anyway. The example I gave is small enough for SPARQL, but others will not be.

There is currently no plan to put the full ID into wb_items_per_site or
wb_property_info, because these tables are bound to a specific entity type.
Whether we want to do this would be a whole new discussion.

For what you are doing there, it's  probably a lot easier to use the query
service. SPARQL:

SELECT DISTINCT ?property ?propertyLabel
WHERE {
    ?property a wikibase:Property .
    ?property wdt:P1630  ?format .
    SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "en" }
}
