  especially in a cave when switching from torch to pick

  yes, this is especially irritating in the darker corners or at night having to switch between torch/lantern and pick.

  Seems unnecessary.
  If you’ve played for long enough you’ll know what each ore node is by colour.

  "seems unnecessary"... apparently you don't understand what "quality of life" means.

  Thought I suggested this as well because for colorblindness it is very difficult to tell the difference without the axe on several ore types.

  Yeah i think this is a good to add in feature, now i need to switch to pickaxe to see what metal ore is.

  To those switching between torch and pick, genuine question: is there a benefit to this over equipping the torch in the L slot?

  That was 13 Sep, '21 - before the addition of the L slot :)
  
  Not sure if this is really needed (or could be optional) in the current game, might have to chat about it!

  Ah, indeed. Optional might be the way to go! Names might be good to see, but they may also get in the way of the game’s clean look if they can’t be turned off. :)

  I would suggest this is resolved or needs to be reassessed. As you can now dually wield pick and torch,
  
  The point of the name to me, that's the focus of your char at the time and you don't need the name of every plant, tree, ore spot clouding your view. so, if you have your ax out you see tree names, if you have a scythe out you see plant names otherwise, you're not looking for those items. So, if I have my knife out bodies should highlight around me.
