How do I remove the assigned ID number from Data Types?

When creating a new Event, Flashback, Chapter, Arc - etc. a number is automatically assigned to the ID. This is a small detail, but when I am plotting out my narrative, I often move events I’ve created from one chronological position to another, or I add events to the middle of the timeline, forcing the ID numbers to go out of sequence. I want to remove the numbers in the ID tags completely - but cannot find the setting to do so. Is this even possible, and if so, where do I make the change in Advanced Settings? TIA

No, it’s not possible. All spreadsheets must have a unique identifier “key” for each entry (row). That ID tag is just that — internal to the workings of the program. “Just ignore it” is the best you can do. The # tag keeps track of the ordering that you as user assign to an event in the spreadsheet.
