But why should we take that into consideration here?

OK, but then does this check actually make sense?  The code has been
that way since the initial DT introduction since we disallow matching by
both name and OF node in order to avoid confusion when building the card
so I think it does but it's only with this mail that I get the
information to figure out that this is something we actually check for
then go find the reason why we check.
