Honestly it's better than just having a generic name which they apply over several generations, with the only difference being the year at the end (which they might forget to add on some listing's). So long as it has a simple way to find the size and resolution from the model id, the rest can be kinda funky as long as I can Google it.

The problem I have with this naming scheme as a consumer is it is hard to find which models are roughly equivalent. Like theyll have their mumbojumbo generic name like ABC24P and this is what you find on reviews but then theres ABC24PE, ABC24PU, ABC24PI3Q and often finding info on if it is just some regional release, different panel or what is actually the difference is problematic.
