It is probably and properly lost in the annals of Red Hat documentation history as to exactly why this format decision came about ... and as for sed being your friend, I can tell you it gets harder when you have a really big doc that has lots of <xref> tags throughout with hard-coded LINKEND to IDs full of s1-, s2-, s3- and so forth.
