Everything is a big word. Of course I disagree with you. Ever heard of
abstractions? They're there so one doesn't have to bother with all the
details.
With CMake, I don't have to think about how to build stuff on tons of
different platforms, CMake abstracts that for me. I don't see why it
can't do the same for naming.

Because as a library developer YOU are responsible for making sure your library integrates well with the operating system you intend to deploy on it. Each Operating System has rules according to Person1, Person2, Person3.... PersonN. It is up to YOU as the DEVELOPER of the library to pick something that makes sense for your project. And just because it makes sense for YOU does not mean it makes sense for MY project.
