You don't have to spend time realizing that it's the same variable (not
e.g. SomeReallyLongVariableNameY) if you read the 1st form.
On the other side
SomeReallyLongVariableNameX += SomeReallyLongVariableNameY - 1;
is too much similar (visually) to
SomeReallyLongVariableNameX := SomeReallyLongVariableNameY - 1;
:(
(You can't please everyone...)
