This still does not justify "let's generate it in the kernel".
Once an admin specifies to use an alternate WWN provision, the method

But you're arguing that the kernel should generate it to "help out"
SAS drivers with HW that has had it's MS/NVRAM erased or corrupted.
The kernel has no business generating SAS WWN.
Perhaps you missed the English text "once an admin specifies" in the
quoted email.
