In any case, would some please give me advice on how to handle
the "floating" USB devices?

Thanks very muchly for your time.

I label all my devices when I format them. They then mount as /media/{label name}.

You label your cameras and printers when you format them?

Heck, I the same name comes up on Mac's as well. I would have to ask my wife or daughter.

All my SD cards and USB sticks are named so I know which is which if I have more than one plugged in at a time.

That doesn't fix the fact that /etc/fstab has to point to a device
name, and that is a moving target. Sometimes I have to mount /dev/sda1
and sometimes /dev/sde1 and sometimes /dev/sdf1 for the same physical
device.

I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
