How's that different to serial numbers, which most devices have, everywhere?

That it's centralized, while serial numbers are not (you could easily have two manufacturers that use the same numbering scheme and find yourself with two different appliances from two different manufacturers with the same serial number).

This is more akin to VINs for vehicles. EDIT: and not even that is an accurate comparison.
