It's not a fatal flaw it's broken hardware (and autodetection broken by
device manufacturers not bothering to replace OEM id with their own is
nothing new or USB-specific)
It's also an issue that the NetworkManager/ModemManager developers are
well aware of - a recent thread on the subject starts here:
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager-list/2013-October/msg00037...
with details of how ModemManager deals with the problem here:
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager-list/2013-October/msg00046...
so in short this device should be added to the greylist if it isn't
there already, and then it will only be probed when such a probe is
explicitly requested.
Note that F19 is using MM 0.6 so doesn't have the greylist.
