You're right, but for non standard things configuring it for literally every project becomes quickly untenable
IDK, I've yet to see a good argument for not having your variables being generally pronouncable (at least, in a way more or less consistent with the native language of your code base or English). I'm just going to lazily parrot the old adage that "code gets read more often than written, so prefer making it easier to read than write"
Although more expensive, it worked wonders for me with text containing units of measurement (°F, °C, m/s, etc).
