Sorry for the late reply. This is a very good point and currently left unclear by the convention!
If manufacturers disagree significantly on some dimension for an otherwise common package or its land pattern, the package shouldn’t be added as generic. If there’s a clear ‘odd one out’ like in your case, I’d say the NXP one is a manufacturer-specific package as much as the pool is concerned, while all other would be consolidated into one generic package.
There’s no need to add the manufacturer to the package’s file name, though. The package has a manufacturer field, which is also shown in the pool browser, and the file name is unique because it’s in the manufacturer-specific package directory.
I’m not completely up to date on who is actually producing these semiconductors, i.e. if it’s Nexperia or NXP. I mean, you could also say that EDA component libraries pretty much always lag behind the latest silicon company mergers, so choose as you see fit. Renaming files in the pool later isn’t a problem for projects depending on the entries anyway.
