Some do, when they issue a df command, and the result is a mess of 
unidentifiable UUIDs.

Which is why, after an install, one of the first things I do is to restore 
/etc/fstab  to an understandable format, ridding it of all the UUID crap.

And edit etc/default/grub  uncommenting the line
#GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true
then running # update-grub2

So that my / partition gets mounted as /dev/sda1
 
Cheers,
 
Ron.
