This argument doesn't scale. There's no guarantee an equivalent is
meaningful in every export back end. E.g., what is the HTML equivalent
for `org-latex-classes', or `org-latex-default-table-environment'?

In any case, if a "consistency patrol" wants to look into export back
ends and handle "fixable" inconsistencies, why not. I assume this
requires a good knowledge in every output format so as to make sure this
is consistent everywhere.
