because you can doesn't mean you should. Walter has emphasize
there is absolutely no shortage of valid words. There is
however, a shortage of what a programmer can keep organized in
his head. That's the shortage you should prioritize, sir. I'm
not sure how to emphasize this anymore. We may just have to
agree to disagree.
I don't think this is confusing:
void foo() safe {
bool safe = false;
}
Using "safe" as both a function attribute and an identifier
doesn't seem confusing to me, however, it appears the leadership
agrees with you so I submit. Let's consider this resolved and
move on to better more interesting things:) I appreciate you
taking the time to voice your opinion and helping me understand
the arguments against this idea.
