Because the rules for fallback say that the fallback for
   xxx-yyy-zzz-special
is first
    xxx-yyy-zzz
and then
    xxx-yyy

There are no 'magic' names and special case rules that would make 
something like
   xxx-all-yyy
the (or 'a' - this could easily be ambiguous) fallback for
   xxx-special-yyy

- and that is Good Thing (TM)
