You're not asking me to do that, right?

FWIW, it is rather "hard" to add 2 users with the same UID.  You'd have to know to include
either -o or --non-unique to the adduser command.  

You'd also need a deliberate act to add user's with UID of less than 1000 since the
default is not to create users with UID of greater than 1000.  Unless, this is an upgraded
system.  I've not tried any of the various GUI to see if one can force lower numbers.
