It smacks of tagging for the renderer (in this case a routing engine). It seems bizarre to specify that for naming it should not use the name of a road it connects, but it should use the ref of a road that connects!

I reworded this recommendation in
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag:junction%3Droundabout&diff=2059754&oldid=1972469
to 
"{{Tag|ref}} and {{Tag|int_ref}} tags from those ways should be added to that roundabout if roundabout is also part of that routes."
(in Poland roundabout would be part of route with assigned ref, in UK situation may be different,
I removed part that based in on tagging for router)
