Count me among the folks who don't agree.

The fact that "dev=1,0,0" seems to mean the same thing as
/dev/dsk/c1t0d0p0 is perhaps intuitive if you understand the inner
structure, but why should I have to?  Why shouldn't "dev=c1t0d0p0"
just work as expected?

It isn't as though any of the 37 pages in cdrecord(1) explains this.

Merely supporting the native device names (instead of some sort of
canonical, but baffling, SCSI naming structure) would, I think, go a
_long_ way to helping cdrecord users.  I really don't want to learn
how to use more than one name for any of my devices.
