For someone who has been using Debian for many years the position you expound is understandable and viable to support. Someone who is used to eth0 and wlan0 for interface names is bound to sit up and take notice when they change to something which is strange and doesn't exactly stick in the memory. But remember new users; does it really matter to them? They have no personal history to point to. As you point out, the engineering advantages are unarguable. And after all, there are three options which can be employed to get something you are not given. That's not bad as things go. -- Brian.
