Well, if idea is that disk act as partition, then for me naive answer
is /dev/sda as /dev/sda is disk and also partition with file system. So
is expected that name is unique identifier of object? Maybe it can be
object, that is both as it is for me idea of disk without partitions,
that it itself act as partition.
