An analogy in our electrical world is that you need wire names (more often numbers in my work) between modules or boards but don't need them inside a unit as the connections are intimate, generally obvious and often very numerous. I know that PCB layout systems generally enforce naming of everything but this too is cumbersome (e.g. for xtal oscillator, compensation RCs tied to a chip) The more names I type the more typos I make - but as I say it is only an aside while we were exploring HAL.
