Lots of people will LABEL something ROOT. Not a lot of people will
pick the same UUID. So UUID collisions means you purposely cloned a
disk UUID. LABEL collisions simply happen because they are meant to be
human readable.

The same one it always refers to. I access my drives by mount point,
not UUID. They mount by UUID however.
Just like I don't care which is sda, sdb or sdc. It's the filesystems
and where they are mounted that matter.
