I always use the static names because they tie in with many BIAB settings (for example exclusions for shots, holds and rests). It also certainly helps with problem solving for everyone to be on the same page.

This is a beautiful, backing.

Like you, I get the impression that the cello is what took command of the person's hearing. I suspect that they didn't appreciate that it's a backing with only a soft melody playing to act as a guide. If the piano was too loud, it would override anyone wanting to play along with the music clip.
