Indeed, https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.net-naming-scheme.html b1 seems to stand for "Broadcom bus (BCMA) core number"

So it seems to me that our stock vanilla kernel has gained support for this broadcom wifi chip with proper Broadcom bus support.

Yet we also have some other implementation that claims to support the same chip, and then doesn't quite work the same way.

I guess wl & bcmwl-kernel-source should not be both declaring support for the same chip? Such that user is not receiving one or the other, at random, or switching between the two, just because they ask installer to enable Nvidia.
