Because I know what physical disks I have in my machine and I want to
relate that to what I see in the output of df. I might even want to
move a device to another machine and be able to mount the right
partitions in the right places. With "normal" (i.e. non-LVM)
partitioning it's fairly easy to do this. With LVM it's definitely not.
