Joseph,
The customer premisses equipment (CPE) are managed and accessed internally for monitoring and maintenance of customer internet connection.
Customers are not eternal.
Can you imagine to a system administrator expends all the day adding hostnames in a DNS Server for at least 10 CPE per day that can be changed 2 days after or a weekend after? Or even adding hostnames in the /etc/hosts for five devices that will be removed after 6 hours?
We have system that only needs a screw to be adjusted, and people with the screwdriver in the hand. Are you asking me to search for a screwdriver and reach the screw to be adjusted?
All the service providers I know, does not control CPE units with hostnames. They use hostnames for servers, main routers, main switches, and other devices that are usually in the Data Center.

It is one time, unless your organization's public IP allocations are
regularly changing.... (I am asusming, of course, that you would take
care of all your RFC 1918 subnets at one time, but if more come into
use, you could add still add them without any effort at all)
If these "CPE" devices are using a public IP address that your
organization doesn't control, then yes, you would have to add internal
hosts entries for any such IP(s) that you care about.
But again, a script can do this in a split second, and could easily be
written to take a CIDR-syntaxed subnet argument...
This sort of "limitation" should never halt an ISP in its tracks. I
mean, Observium is open source.... there is nothing stopping you from
patching it directly to do what you want, and maintaining said patch, so
if that scenario fits your use case (temporarily monitoring equipment
living on public IPs of other organizations), then it sure would make
sense to customize your Observium setup to work with it, if maintaining
a DNS server or hosts file is too much work for you.
