To some degree I don't care about the actual number other than roughly following the device ID.

At some point later in the design the numbers will be updated to project numbers and then frozen.

I am using the numbers to identify devices.

If a device is deleted or replaced with another type of device I want the
numbering to still be sequential.

Do you have some other way of tracking a device? I am just trying to figure out how you know which device number 2 (as an example) you are looking at. I
am assuming these devices exist as actual entities. So are these numbers
applied to the actual device and if so are you going to be constantly
renumbering them?
