I can't speak for amdtemp, but if coretemp used its own context instead of its parent's context, it would show up as dev.coretemp.X.temperature instead of dev.cpu.Y.temperature, where X is not necessarily equal to Y. Since, as you point out, the coretemp device is a child of the corresponding cpu device, there is no risk of orphaning the temperature OID.
