Yes, that is the only reason. LilyPond has only some of them, so that would 
leave gaps in E53, and also in E72, if one would use it there.

Great!. Then Smufl is not needed at all for these here.

I do not have any preference about the names. You can see the Smufl names in 
the file regularE53smufl.ly I posted.
