They are just as good sequence of characters as any other. Why do you automatically assume that eth or wlan are any more meaningful? Just because you happen to speak English? There are languages that do not even use Latin alphabet.
It is a change in naming. From where to where does not matter. When you have a server that used to have a network interface named eth0 and it becomes enp13s0,
And word "hilarious" really means all of this? In a single word? Wow! Let's do not mix two different issues. When you update existing environment I agree that existing names should not change. This may be a problem because IIRC upstream removed all hacks used in interface renaming. So attempting to swap eth0 and eth1 may not really work, unless openSUSE will maintain these hacks. So test updates, file bug reports. For new installations one name is as good as another. I personally find new names more useful. If you want to disable them, it is trivial.
