That’s kind of my point, though. There is no reason at all to remember IP addresses.

I don't care to remember them, but I do want them to be consistent so there's no dependency in DNS.

My home network isn't the Internet and isn't large: DNS is a much more complicated system to keep running then just fixed IP addresses in that circumstance.

Above a certain scale, that flips but not at the home level.
