Labeling switches and valves

So, I've been in a long term loaner fifth wheel for a week. The biggest issue I've had so far is with switch and valve labeling - the valves are mislabeled and a bunch of the switches just aren't labeled. I understand not labeling the switches that are obvious, but there are a bunch that are a mystery.

Would it kill the manufacturers to label the switches?

Is this common across all manufacturers?

I think it's pretty common in the RV industry. You might mention it to the rental agency you got the RV from, I'd think they'd label things for new users.

Yep, I used a label maker and made tiny labels for the switches in our TH, so many switches together, had to always flip them all to finally get the right one.

Hmmm...every switch and valve in my Itasca is (correctly) labeled, other than the switches that are physically located on the unit that they turn on/off (light fixtures).
