Way back in my dark ages of programming (dBase III+) there was a concept
of record recycling. This involved one or more methods of tracking
deleted records - and then re-using those records. This was to avoid
what dBase called the "pack" operation - which would be a subset of a
Firebird sweep.

Is there any reason for an application developer to implement such a
strategy in their data access framework - or just let Firebird handle it?
