Yeah they make life easier. From your talk you never had a problem with eth<0,10> switching names after boot. Everyone who had them appreciates

Everyone who had them could learn how to write simple udev rules to get
fixed eth<0,10> names after every boot. No systemd and no "predictable"
names necessary.
right

Nevertheless I'm still wondering what's so predictable at those
incomprehensible, cryptic device names anyway. And I don't want to know
that.
Maybe there are different opinions, but what is cryptic on - as a typical one - enp3s0?:
e - ethernet
n - network
p - pci (port) ...
3 - ... 3
s - slot ...
0 - ... 0

Just an example. The real mess with systemd is that it violates the good ol' Unix culture. Especially by "capturing" udev. Thanks to Gentoo for eudev!!!
