I empty my tables all the time when doing CRUD work and it just iterates to the next value after the last used. It looks silly & awkward.
Either way, had kirk not returned, he would not have achieved this amazing feat  Job well done ♪ |

Sometimes duplicate posts get made, and the copy is deleted. The deleted post still has its own ID number. On occasion long threads have been duplicated also.
Not sure you would count those posts in any total post count. Same way that your postcount number goes down if you have posts deleted.
