I don't think it's desireable, because atapibus also attaches to umass.
Instead of
atapibus at atabus
atapibus at umass
sd at atapibus
st at atapibus
cd at atapibus
uk at atapibus

you'd have 
sd at atabus
st at atabus
cd at atabus
uk at atabus
sd at umass
st at umass
cd at umass
uk at umass

It's more lines, and you don't know what you're talking about any more ...
