A lot of heat templates precreate the ports though. its sometimes easier to 
build the template that way.

May not matter too much. Just pointing out its more common then you might think.

Thanks,
Kevin

Agreed, this seems reasonable to me for the migration scheduling case.

I view the pre-created port scenario as an edge case.  By explicitly
pre-creating a port and using it for a new instance (rather than letting
nova create a port for you), you are implicitly stating that you have more
knowledge about the networking setup.  In so doing, you’re removing the
guard rails (of nova scheduling the instance to a good network for the
host it's on), and therefore are at higher risk to crash and burn.  To me
that’s an acceptable trade-off.
