Those suffixes don't really matter. The XDG icon logic says that a
prefix search should take place to find the right icon. i.e. if
"foo-bar" is not available, "foo" is tried instead, and so on.

I decided to expose the connector in the icon names, so that artists
can optionally include that in the icon. Those icons' primary purpose
is to ease identification of the audio devices connected to a machine
in the mixer UIs. For that it might be useful to embedd a small
bluetooth resp. USB logo in the form factor icons. But that's up to
the artists.

Sure. But those icons don't even exist yet. /me wheeps
