You'd be suprised how many ID No.s people have; National Health No.
(which
was used for identity cards during WWII). National Insurance No., Driving
Licence & the list goes on.


They're not ID numbers though,


They are unique to you and are ID numbers.

they're specific to their purpose. Sometimes they'll be accepted as ID but
not universally.


They are not proof of ID, no ID number is proof.
You need some item for proof, like an ID card.
An ID card that only you can get unlike an NHS number which anyone can
actually apply for.
You are confusing ID numbers with ID.
