I'm not sure that "irrelevant" is the right word, but my initial reason for posting was to object to your claim that you could "guarantee" how others think, but as you ask I would also dispute your theory about sequential numbering. If it were true it would apply in almost any other scenario, so let's try it:

Instead of Gallente industrials, how about Gallente frigates? Are you seriously claiming that you would find them easier to remember if they were called Atron Mk I, Atron Mk II, Atron Mk III, etc, instead of individual names?

What about RL? If you wanted a new car and went along to your local Ford dealership, you would find it easier to choose between the various models if they were called Galaxy Mk I, Galaxy Mk II, Galaxy Mk III, etc?

Do you have family - aunts, uncles, cousins? If so, no doubt they have unique given names, but you would prefer Cousin 1, Cousin 2, Cousin 3, etc?

I think not.

[Edit] If you look at the original feedback you will see that at first I objected to the idea of new names but I'm happy with the way it was done. Keeping the Iteron Mk V for those who seem to regard it with some sort of strange reverence was a nice touch.
