Was thinking about that. Decided to pass on this now. This should be
addressed by follow-up anyway.

Not sure about this. I have take closer look. In general, I don't like
to abuse anything :)

Howcome? I only don't see "dev x" on ens7. That is the only difference,

Understood. Again, this should be addressed in follow-up.
