The idea is to define a standard so that all the distros use the same 
naming scheme. That way, we avoid situations where some distros document 
that people use one scheme, and people try to use that with another 
distro. The unfortunate truth of things is that most distributions don't 
coordinate with each other, so it helps things hugely if upstream 
provides information about how to define names. A simple note on the 
driver website would probably be sufficient, if you'd prefer not to 
enforce this in the code.
