Underscores are not always easily available on non us-layout keyboards,  
like \ and @ and many other "special" characters. A language that requires  
more symbols than the 26 english letters has to make room somewhere -  
keyboards usually have "only" 102 keys (or 105 nowadays).
Back to the style, I think that mixedCaseIsEnough to  
determine_word_endings and looksBetter. alllowercase is hard to read.
