Having to constantly explain that "_t" means type, that "size" does not mean size, what this type is supposed to mean instead, what it is used for in core and stdlib functionality, and what programmers are supposed to use it for... isn't this a waste of our time? This, only because the name is mindless?
No, because there is a vast body of work that uses size_t and a vast body of programmers who know what it is and are totally used to it.
