"table_name.available_primary_key()," is 'auto incrementing'. Is available_primary_key able to re-use previously deleted primary keys and re-utilize them?

eg. assuming some random primary_keys such as 2, 9, 31, 56, 66, & 89, etc.. have been erased from a table filled with the max possible primary_keys, would it begin utilizing the next 'smallest' available_primary_key?

I want to assume the answer is yes, but the manual seems to imply otherwise?

No. available_primary_key() returns (the primary key of the last item) + 1.
