I think you misunderstood his argument. He is saying that by searching
for /snake_case/ you will find both "snake_case" and "no_snake_case".
But /camelCase/ won't match "noCamelCase" - you have to search for
/[cC]amelCase/ instead.
I'm not sure if I'm convinced by that. I prefer snake_case simply for
aesthetic reasons. My native language is German, so I should be used to
gratuitous capitalisation from early childhood - but I still find
camelCase ugly.
