I think the opposite is ridiculous. We have spent some time investigating the
history of this unit, to find out that RK3066 is the first occurence where
it exists. Since we want the binding to cover all generations of the same unit
and give it a name that reflects this, rk3066 is the natural choice that comes
to mind. As far as I understand, this is the normal thing to do to name
bindings: name after the earliest known occurence of the unit.

What is the rationale behind naming the file after a generation of the unit
that happens to be the one introducing the binding? This is neither the first
nor the last one to include this unit. The binding will be updated later to
cover other generations. Do we want to rename the file each time an a generation
earlier than px30 is introduced? That sounds quite ridiculous too.

We've done the research work to give it the most relevant name here.
I'd expect some strong arguments not to use it. Can you ellaborate?

Cheers,

Paul
