Would such a list not by nature consist of PII?

Not necessarily. It might consist of user IDs (integers, UUIDs) or hashed values of something that can be mapped to the user...

User ID's are considered PII though. If it can be mapped to the user, it's by definition identifying information

Identifiers that have no meaning outside of your system are not PII.
