No. That is wrong conclusion.
What I'm saying is that user_friendly_names has had issues in the past. Today,
they still have the burden of, when used, to ensure that the binding file is
propagated and remains up-to-date. Eg. initrd, cluster setups.
Device names based on wwid are unique and persistent.
What we are doing is just making a recommendation of Best Practices. Each
feature has its merits and drawbacks.
