You're missing something - note what I say above about the direction the
mapping is done in, and consider what happens if we've got two of the
same PMIC down in a system.

I'm still not seeing how this would cause an issue. The only Device
Tree nodes which will be parsed are the ones which are specified by
a particular driver's compatible string, meaning that any other
nodes referencing similar regulator/supply names would be ignored.

Suppose you have two devices of the same type with an array of name
based regulators, meaning the nodes with constraints have to have a
particular name in order to be matched to the regulator.  How would a
consumer reference a node to specify a supply?
