In pure ignorance;
Rob Stewart pointed out that dev is sometimes an abbreviation for
"development"
or "developer."
The reason I'm not too excited about "device_streambuf" and "device_stream" is that they're hard to pronounce without running the final consonant of "device" into the initial consonant of "stream" or "streambuf."
They read better than "dev".
