To be fair, this is only true for PCI Ethernet adapters. From the information he has provided to me off-list, it is indeed the case that the ethernet-over-USB device in question (essentially a 4G router I believe) IS changing MACs on each power cycle, so the names are not predictable, without some sort of udev configuration or other tricks. I don't think it's common for routers to do MAC randomization on the wired Ethernet side, but these USB dongles often behave in odd ways.
