There's no harm in using it for regulators that physically exist if
nothing cares about any of the information it can't provide and renaming
it now is going to cause annoyance with cross tree issues so I'm kind of
reluctant to apply this.  Are there any concrete problems that have been
caused by this or was it just something you noticed when looking at
using it yourself?

This is already done, I can't remember who sent the patch off the top of
my head.
