Yes, what you say is true, but not very often and from what I've seen is 
due to mainboard setup or defects in the mainboard causing the bad setup 
due to mainboard SATA connection being mislabeled.  But if everything is 
correct and you are using lets say sda1 as root in your fstab your 
system will use sda1 as the LABEL, I've seen this over and over.

But all this is advanced setup for people running more than one Linux 
system and having to edit UUID on all systems because you install a new 
system is undesirable.
