Please disregard what I said in the background section of my original
post. I will correct a few factual errors.

Qunatum computing has nothing to do with using Argon2id.

Argon2id promises up to a quadratic increase in mitgating GPUs vs the
linear protection of PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA*. PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA* is not "totally
useless" as stated earler, but rather less effective against GPU
parallelization.
