Agreed.

Until we find there is a difference. Marvell, can you confirm that the
switch really is the only difference?

This might also come down to ID registers. The DT could be enough to
find the ID of the device, the rest is then done in the drivers, not
DT.

armada-98dx25xx and armada-98dx35xx does help with the naming.  So it
probably is worth having armada-98dx35xx which simply includes
armada-98d25xx.
