    In simpler terms, what you are experiencing is because Google Analytics 4 (GA4) doesn’t use the same method for client ID tracking as Google Analytics 3 (GA3) does. While GA3 uses “_ga” cookies, GA4 provides this ID differently. Therefore, when using both on the same page, they are not sharing the same client ID, they just work in different ways.
