I also vote for using the names sd/st instead of da/sa
(though I fear it is far too late to avoid the change).

Over the last 10 years my brain has developed some fixed
neural pathways that say "sd" and "st" and it is hard to
change.  Also, I dread having to explain the meaning of
"da" and "sa" to people who do not live and breathe the
SCSI standards.
