I agree with everything you say, we just don't know yet(and maybe never will to the degree we want) and I'm making a lot of assumptions and speculations with what I have in mind. There really is no way the people would use the same classification system we use, in fact having any scientific name at all is a stretch. But, I really can't pass up an opportunity to maybe spark the interest of others through my roleplay. 
For all we know aether may play a role in how they can predict dragon attacks by the stars. Let's say all the stars are connected through said aether, thus allowing events on one to affect the other. So the dragons attacks could be revealed through the stars by this link and then it could be said that each stars position relative to the others could influence this link in certain ways. For example, my birth star is currently passing close to whatever star is represented by ifrit and Zodirks(I'm pretty sure this is spelled wrong , Hydaelyn rival). This would be a bad thing, it could result in a possible house fire, that would burn it to nothing but ashes.
It would be my characters job, hobby, whatever to discover such links and then let the others discover what said link means. Just some more ideas.Â
