My understanding is that the storage space taken up for Refs is currently 8 bytes per Ref (4 each for the start and end positions), plus filename strings which are deduplicated across all refs. If we add a SymbolID, that adds an additional 8 bytes to each Ref. Given that Refs are numerous, and most of them won't use the SymbolID, that seems wasteful. That said, I do appreciate that this is a simpler approach in terms of complexity, so if folks feel the right tradeoff is to take the Refs approach, I am open to doing that.
