Garrett,

Surely you've got bigger issues with the MinPlatform than naming right? I
don't see how this can ever be a hindrance, particularly considering all
you've got in the final firmware images are GUIDs.

https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-platforms/blob/master/Platform/Qemu/QemuOpenBoardPkg/QemuOpenBoardPkg.fdf
is an example of a virtual platform for QEMU in MinPlatform fashion.
Combine that and
some other Intel platform and you probably have a decent idea of how an AMD
platform would look like (mentioned QOBP because of the lack of FSP and
pre-mem CAR, although AIUI AGESA does expose an FSP interface).

There are no problems by leaving firmware volumes you don't need/don't make
sense (like e.g Fsp-T) empty.
