There is an assertion (by some) that the mis-naming is not a real problem and the fact that 99% of the users misunderstand the details of the typedef is not a problem. There are others who assert that this misunderstanding is an ongoing problem. IMO the clear-cut solution provided by YANG (start over with a new identifier) is an extremely expensive solution, and does not address the root problem of the misuse. The "patch" for the problem is for all servers to make sure they accept or reject a client-provided zone index, and do not silently ignore it.
