It also doesn't say that it will not change. So the safe thing would be not to make any assumption about its permanence, right? Naturally the user of the remote device might change is name (if the remote device has such a feature) and then the EIR data would change too. Note that even if there's a name in storage it doesn't mean that it's from the same discovery session. It might be from a previous discovery session a long time ago and the user of the remote device might have changed its name since then. So imho a complete name in an EIR should always override whatever is in storage. For the case of shortened names I don't think there's an indisputably right answer. The question is what is better: that which is "complete" or that which is more recent. I've got the feeling that the complete version would be better for the user, but someone might of course disagree with this.
