I think you may change your mind if you had to type
NSSomeLongNameOfSomethingValueKey all day instead of .Value. Remembering prefix
names is a waste of my time if the compiler can do it for me. I wonder how many
hours total in my life I’ve spent writing lists of constants with prefixes and
then typing them back out in function calls.
