Then, definitely, the current designation for disambiguations is more consistent, more intuitive and easier for users to locate the precies version of the character they have been looking for.

Also, the rename of the current 17,918 Earth-616 characters (and the disambiguations) would be a gargantuan effort with very little reward. It takes forever to get a page moved at its current rate (I've been fixing pages for being moved and then asking ADour to move them for months, and they seem to be neverending. Imagine adding 18000 pages for being moved, then fixing all the links, appearances/images/mentions categories deleted and recreated, changing the scripts for templates...)

As I said, I think it is a titanic effort.
