i think it's only a problem when one expects them to do too much:
recursive combination of two directories is an example (yet that's
usually what's needed in general for versioning, i think).
they are an effective way of doing what they usually do now:
build up directories of services and other resources
from many sources, local and remote, including substituting
one for another. the naming seems consistent to me.
if a name appears in a directory, i can use that name.
whether it appears once or twice, doesn't matter.
the arguments seem to focus on whether with a change here or there
they could be got to do a little more work (eg, by allowing * to
iterate exactly once over all services, protocols, say).
i don't think it's that essential in practice.
