If I remember correctly, newbus will throw an error if you try to create two devices with the same number. Applying the logic of using the cell-index property for all device nodes, if two sub buses from simplebus have the same set of child nodes, with the same cell-index property values, one set of children would error and not attach. Of course this change is only for simplebus, so shouldn't have too big an impact.
