Indeed, this is a variation of what Leo suggested and customizing
org-id-link-to-org-use-id is almost working for me...

Unfortunately, I want the links to export to latex using latex
\ref{}'s and section labels. A link stored with a custom id has to
have a description to have a reasonably readable org buffer, but links
with descriptions are exported using the headline text instead of the
section number. Is there a workaround for this?

After perusing the source code further, I think that my confusion
about org-id-store-link arose because this function isn't intended to
be called on it's own (it's called by org-store-link when appropriate
based on the value of org-id-link-to-org-use-id).

I've seen a double hyphen in function names to sometimes indicate
internal functions. Would this function be more appropriately named
org-id--store-link or am I misunderstanding the convention?
