Yeah, that would be just as good, really.  Maybe even better.

Mark Lord wrote (later on):
Instead, software has to search everything inside /sys/block/
looking for a "dev" file whose contents match,
rather than just trying to access something like this:

  /sys/block/8:1/start
or
  /sys/block/majors/8/minors/1/start

Or any one of a number of similar ways to arrange it.
..


It shouldn't be under /sys/block... there are enough many things that scan /sys/block and assume any directory underneath it has the current format.
