Another option for filenames would be to recognize that the basename and extensions are distinct parts and the extension should always be displayed after the basename no matter what is in the basename. Of course, this adds lots of complexity so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Problem is that there's cases like foo.tar.gz. What's the extension there?
