I do because I want `org-babel-detangle' to make sense whether the
reader has Emacss+Org-Mode, or not, and whether the writer has set ID
on headlines and NAME on codeblocks, or not. It is tedious to set
allocate a name for every single code block and headline when each of
them simply doesn't need a name or id. It is easier to give it a
default a name and id.
