If we change it to require future files to have letters that are in the same order as the numbers on the sticker sheet, it's useful, but not great. Not too many people know off the top of their head what the 12th letter of the alphabet is.
On the other hand, if we change it to require future files to have a different naming scheme, we introduce confusion, since all the old stickers will have visibly different filenames from the new stickers. While that's not good, having the number be right there would make those stickers easier for people to use. I'm not sure which is better.
I don't think the letter/number suffix scheme really matters to the end users. Most users look up parts in a visual index anyway. I don't think we really need to change anything.
