Your explanation about deriving the name from the allocation operation, along with the change to `tbaa-codegen2.fir`, made me reconsider the `!empty` check. Since accesses sharing an allocation are guaranteed to use the same name, an empty name is still a sound shared bucket ("allocated data/"). The reset moves compiler temps with an empty name onto the parent "allocated data" tag, which makes them `MayAlias` named local allocations and loses existing TBAA precision.

Could we therefore drop the check and `name.reset`? Sorry for the mix-up here.
