I don't know.. I think choosing '7th server on the list' makes it easier for everyone. The only case in which it wouldn't is if S-E starts randomizing the server selection list for each person. Not sure if that will happen, but if it did that would throw everyone off.
HOPEFULLY we have the names of the servers before the C-E comes out. I am guessing we will and here's why: The people in the beta get to take their names with them to the final release, and they've said they want to give players migrating over from XI the same option. It's unlikely they are going to reserve everyone's name for ALL servers, so when the time comes to reserve your character name, they will probably give people in beta a list of the servers and ask them to pick which one they want their name reserved on. It seems like at that (hypothetical) point is when the best time to pick a server will be. They may have some weird mojo way of doing it that makes no sense though, so this could be totally off.
