Somehow I feel this discussion should better go to the dev-list…

From a user perspective, if they belong together why not create one banner 
paragraph that has a dropdown with variants? I really don't want to decide 
which banner I use before I decide that I need a banner. Being able to switch 
between banner variants seems more logical
