I would add that the DaffodilBinInfo object takes an arg named root and an arg named name, as if these concepts were orthogonal.
I don't think they should be orthogonal. Users don't need that much control.
Consider fakeTDL (on DFDLSchemas github)
Two bin files are created for each version of daffodil.
dfdl-fakeTDL-1.0.0-fakeTDL-daffodil350.bin
dfdl-fakeTDL-1.0.0-fakeTDLFile-daffodil350.bin
I don't see why the root element name isn't just always used as the classifier in the name.
I don't know why users need to be able to give alternate names like just "file" instead of putting the root element name into the file name always. But at least the default should use the root element name in the file name.
