then keep only one queryid over all environments, that's easy enough in SQL:

SELECT min(queryid) OVER (partition by query ORDER BY environment),
... FROM all_pg_stat_statements

if you have your environment named like 0_production,
1_preproduction... you'll get the queryid from production.  Once
again, that's not ideal but it's easy to deal with it when consuming
the data.

I'd be really surprised if you see a single collision in your whole
life, whatever pg_stat_statements.max you're using.  I'm also pretty
sure that the collision risk is technically higher with an 8B queryId
field rather than a 16B md5, but maybe I'm wrong.
