In short: yes please keep this section in the release notes. We still ship https://salsa.debian.org/systemd-team/systemd/blob/master/debian/patches/debian/Revert-udev-network-device-renaming-immediately-give.patch in buster, which sort of makes 70-persistent-net.rules work most of the time. This patch is a horrible hack though and has already been removed in the experimental branch which will be buster+1 https://salsa.debian.org/systemd-team/systemd/commit/3d45a7af959cf260bffcb1ad0262973b5750ae36 We want people to switch to the new naming scheme for two reasons: 1/ It makes buster backports of newer systemd versions possible 2/ People are already prepared when they upgrade to buster+1. Say the buster+1 kernel fails, they can still boot with the buster kernel+initramfs. I can go into more detail but hope that clarifies the situation.
