(Or whatever it comes up as next week) On the other hand, you now revert to the problem this change was introduced to address: Your network interfaces may change names arbitrarily if you make any hardware changes - for example, inserting or removing USB devices that provide a network interface (such as a mobile phone in tethering mode), or a new PCI network adapter. You may then need to use the udev MAC address based network interface renaming to avoid issues.
