I sort-of go along with that.  If you've set a hostname, there's sense
in it not getting changed.  On the other hand, if you use a DHCP server
to centrally manage the allocation of addresses, you might also want it
(or your DNS server) to control hostnames.  I do.  Some devices on my
network obey naming instructions from the DHCP &/or DNS servers, others
ignore it.
