I argued for that, and -platform to be 'namespaced' a long long time
ago[1]. The idea was shot down, and while I wasn't exactly thrilled,
I'd disagree with changing it now. Scripts, software, and whole
distributions (speaking from personal experience) are making use of
that argument in a lot of places. If you change it, a lot of things
will break, and people will be unhappy.
