Bingo.

It's less about what everyone does versus you doing things consistently and
having a system that works for you.  There's no shortcut for documenting
your address space.  How you slice and dice it is up to you.   Even then,
the best laid plans of network administrators often go awry.  When your 10
static addresses allocated for printers are used up and you add the 11th
one... yeah. :)

There are a handful of conventions - none of them truly universal.  DHCP
starting at 100, etc...   It's a common default, but not a law like
gravity.
