    What do you mean? The nvme device label convention is far easier to screw up IMO. At least on my system the first drive would be labeled “nvme0n1”, second “nvme1n1”, etc and partitions get an additional suffix like “nvme0n1p1”.

    I am far more likely to screw that up compared to “sda” vs “sdb”. Especially since I noticed that if I have both my internal and external SSDs hooked up at boot time their number gets assigned on a seemingly random basis.
