I do it because of my own personal idiosyncrasies, because it is easier for me. And when I am posting links to concepts, the semantic shortname is indeed easier to post -- because I don't actually have to look up the name -- and read -- because it makes it much clearer what you are getting.
I don't copy the full URL, because it is way too long and clogs up the Edit Post page, which is irritating... so I might as well only copy the pertinent information.
Why. Do. You. Give. A. Darn.

And because I can copy a link from calibre. Cool. Seems Kovid knows about it too.
