The best way is to get buggy software fixed. So lifting the apic id on the boot cpu will help find those bugs sooner, so they get fixed.
While this is philosophically true, it sounds like those "well, works with fuctory bios, so linuxbios is broken" kind of thing.
Especially since having the boot cpu on apic id 0 is not particularly wrong.
