is there any foreseeable use case for mixed cohorts? If not, it sounds like this would be a useful enhancement.

fantastic, is there any chance we could get an even better performance if we allowed users to specify the field type in the upload form (if it’s just user_ids, validation will be faster and the app doesn’t need to check every single entry for a valid user_name too). I understand that by design the application makes no assumption about the type of that field (and in fact it accepts a mix of user_id’s and user_names, correct)?

absolutely, it would run up to 2x faster if the file was all user_ids and the user specified that up front.  But currently, yes, you can mix user_ids and user_names
