Why wlan1?

I have a ThinkPad X60. Trisquel 7.
There is usb0. eth0. Still, wlan1 and not wlan0.
What is the explanation for this messed numbering scheme?
It might have previously used a different card. It wouldn't be nice if
the numbers were determined by the random order in which the devices are
detected, so the software remembers which MAC address belongs to wlan0
or wlan1. Other udev configurations make it name the devices after the
physical PCI ports in which they are inserted.
You might change this by editing or creating
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules.

Yes! That was it. Thank you.
And yes, it would be nice to have the unique identifier from Fedora.
