My understanding here is that it doesn't matter much _which_ we retain, as long as (a) we have a consistent strategy to generate struct names based on what we keep (e.g. whether toplevel or "nested"), and (b) we don't end up generating things twice, redundantly. As a result, picking the "wrong" one can only result in a suboptimal name being generated (at least that's the theory).
