That's not how it works. If you have a device, you assign a unique id
which is used to identify that device when ever it's plugged in. This is
how CUPS knows which printer of the exact same type to send print jobs.

The config of one device would stay with that device if it was done
right. It wouldn't effect anything else, even if you plugged in a
blackberry of the same type, with the same PIN (unlikely I know)

Static configs are only useful when you need to interrupt the flow of
data in some pre-defined and controllable manner. Configurations are not
replacements for system mechanics, but are supposed to be an addition.
