[development] Why do we avoid auto-incrementing db columns?

Could someone either clue me in or point to a prior discussion about
why Drupal avoids using auto-incrementing database columns?  If it is
database compatibility, which versions of which databases that we
support do not have it?

Thanks,

Barry
