5G gateway SSID names

I just received my Nokia (round) gateway. Do you all choose to make every SSID and passwords the same? And let the gateway choose which network your devices connect to? I've always had different names for the 2.4ghz and 5.0ghz So I know which network I'm connecting to.

    I only have the standard SSID1, SSID5, and SSID9 active.  All the other SSIDs are turned off.

     

    And have all the active SSIDs named the same, to keep WiFi-6 compatibility.
