Name and version is not just used for UI, it is used to specify what database to open and to prevent schema conflicts. But I assume you are talking about the "display name". Just because an implementation wont present the display name in UI, other implementations will. Letting authors optionally leave out the display name will just give a bad experience is user agents that do show them. User agents that don't plan to show the display name could just ignore the argument.
