In which case would a user choose not to use the SCI? Using the MAC
address is probably fine in basic setups, but having to fiddle with a
module parameter (so unloading and reloading the module, which means
losing network connectivity) to make things work when the setup
evolves is really not convenient.

Is there a drawback to always using the SCI?
