Why does that make them more useful for end users than device filenames,
especially for non-SCSI devices? USB or ATA bus numbers - or USB device
identifiers - might be more useful than SCSI bus numbers, for end users
who have USB or ATA devices. ATA bus numbers had a deterministic mapping
to /dev/hd* device filenames, once upon a time.
Why does that mean the correct solution is "require the user to type in
the bus number on a program's command line" rather than "configure a
particular bus number to have a particular filename"?
