If it's not 100% predictable and configurable by the sysadmin then it does *not* provide "enough confort", as in an Enterprise environment this means 100% certainty that the system comes up with each networking card having a definite, assigned name and that everything that depends on networking is always going to work fine short of a hardware failure. Randomness is very unwelcome in critical systems and in data centers, where even a tiny percentage of random malfunction has to be multiplied by the numer of racks and devices that are present to be deemed acceptable.
