Correct, but do all network elements actually support RFC4007? Maybe
there are devices where interfaces do not have a simple sequential
numbering.
There is nothing that says sequential. And the native identifier for
an interface used to be a number (and text about using the number as
the canonical format is not new either).
That's all true, but I could imagine a device which by design requires
(say) two numbers to identify an interface (e.g. interface 3 in row 2).
That might simply be out of scope for your model, as it is for RFC 4007.
