That is the part that rubs me the wrong way. I would rather we say that these payment method identifiers designate information about a payment method's use in the ecosystem. And that's all they identify. The information may vary (and may involve apps!). 

It may not matter from a technology perspective, but I find it confusing (at least from a communications perspective) to say that the URL identifies different things simultaneously.
I realize it may not bother others. :)
