I already brought this up on the main pattern matching issue some time ago (https://bugs.python.org/issue42128#msg388554), where the consensus was that not using a Name is consistent with other parts of the ast, such as `import ... as identifier`, `except ... as identifier` and others.

For mypy having a Name node there would slightly simplify the code (I'm currently inserting a dummy NameExpr at AST-Conversion.

+0 from me.
