I pointed out what a PITA UUIDs instead of human readable name labels
are on Linux.

While this is tech-install, for most systems there is a purpose after
installation, and that purpose may entail changes.

We should not set up any element of the OS such that the only sane method,
when you need to do a trivial change like add a partition, is to reinstall
it from scratch.
