The worst part is that it's not like there's a shortage of unnamed stars out there.

I can just see the future now:

500 years from now, after developing FTL travel, a group of colonists settle a planet a few hundred light years from Earth. This is the first habitable planet discovered and a big deal is made of it.

Then it is revealed that 500 years prior, one of the leaders of the colony's ancestor named the star using StarRegistrar.com while another leader's named it using StarWishing.com.

Things escalate and war breaks out. It spreads back to Earth and we end up bombing ourselves back into the Bronze Age on both worlds.
