P: Layer comps named/ordered/number incorrectly after closing and reopening document

Please download this action. And run it.

https://yadi.sk/d/IFn5lyAW9Z5Biw

It will create a file. Will make 9 layerComps in it and offer to save. Save it.
Note that the layerComps in file goes in order.
Close the file and open the saved one.
It will have some duplicated layerComps. I often duplicate 2 and 2. This is because Photoshop created them with the same ID. If you quickly create layerComps, then they can create the same ID and everything will be messed up.
A bug appears even in CC2018.
There is no bug in CS6.

Please confirm.

    Has uploaded action changed? I downloaded it now and it doesn't reflect description, it only selects gradient.

    The action mode should be "Accelerated"
    Do you have such a mode?

    I can't reproduce the bug on my machine (OSX 10.15.4)  and so I'm trying to see if this bug is machine dependent.

    You are interested in what purpose?
    Can't reproduce the bug?
    It is reproduced on any OS, on any photoshop starting at least from 2018.

    Reformulate please. I misunderstood the question (in English).

    If something:
    The action is just an example, that if you quickly create  LayerComps (for example, in a script), then they get the same ID, as if it takes the current seconds of time as the basis for creating the ID.

    Is this reproducible with files outside ones set up with your action?
