The email is not a primary key in the parties table, but it does have a uniqueness constraint. The primary key is party_id and is used as an identifier throughout the system and doesn't need to change.

Note also that all objects in ACS 4 reference an acs_object(object_id). I think the hierarchy for a acs_user is: 

acs_objects
 parties
  persons
   users
    acs_users
