I'm not totally sure that this answers your question, but: "Because the rules are triggered before the default one (rules are triggered in alphanumerical order, so 70 comes before 80) the names provided in the rule file will be used instead of the default ones. The number granted to the file should be between 76 and 79 (the environment variables are defined by a rule start starts with 75 and the fallback naming is done in a rule numbered 80)." https://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-amd64.xml?part=4&chap=2#doc_chap4 - Grant
