Although this is true, one thing we could do is set a default hostname

they detect the hostname is the generic "static" one.
The hostname is used in the install-time-generated disk volume names (/dev/mapper/fedora_myhostname-home), so changing it is confusing.
Would it make sense to leave the old names? or rename the volumes?

Is using a unique volume group name not actually preferable. 
If one needs to add a disk from one machine to another it avoids the problem of having 2 volume groups with the same name and therefore overlapping LV names.
I got bitten by that once.
