Why is understanding the device names, as opposed to understanding what 
filesystems are, critical to understanding the output of "df"? 
Addressing the issue of filesystem use typically involves searching and 
summing file sizes (du).  The first step to addressing filesystem use 
issues is probably archiving or deleting unnecessary data, which isn't 
affected by LVM.  Beyond that, users might choose to address such an 
issue by re-sizing the filesystem, which is possible with LVM but 
generally difficult or impossible without it. Or they might choose to 
reinstall with different filesystem allocations and restore data from 
backup, which also isn't affected by LVM.

I don't see your case, frankly.  I can't find any process here that LVM 
complicates.
