I guess it's a fair criticism. It would be hard to collect all the
compatibles without describing which device they belong too though. So
yeah, there's some redundancy, but removing the descriptions entirely
would be worse imo.

I don't really have a say there anymore, but I always tend to prefer
consistency in documentation as a user. Even more so since that kind of
categorization tends to be very subjective and thus super inconsistent.
