Thanks! I was just under the impression that #+name: was the preferred
way of labeling things and I was surprised it did not work as I
expected on some backends. I was surprised to see that
#+name: eq:x
gives a different result from
\label{eq:x}
as I understood the two things to be equivalent.

Hi everyone,
There may be an issue with using #+name: labels when exporting to
non-latex backends. For example:
---
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:x}
x = 1
\end{equation}
cref:eq:x
---
Exports correctly to markdown, but:
---
#+name: eq:x
\begin{equation}
x = 1
\end{equation}
cref:eq:x
---
