I thought they standardized on sd* even for IDE drive a few years back...

Yeah, that's what I think as well...

Got a few old rigs with IDE drives in them running Void x86, the drives in /dev are named sdx.

I didn't know that. Maybe nvme hasn't been added to the standard yet then.

No, they decided that nvme were too fancy to be modeled by mundane 'sdxn' scheme. They hypothetically have 'namespaces' and 'controller paths' and they wanted to have the naming scheme model that fully.
