I have come to the same conclusion - working on a 6-7 stack large
project and command and function names like
libSQB_CustomPropertyToNewObjectPAIR pOptions,pobjProp1,pobjProp2
libKMR_returnFieldTitlesARRAYFromDatabase pTargetDB, pTableName
although verbose, really work for me... I just cut and paste the long
names..and prefix most names with the stack name.
I have to stop and force myself to think more about and describe what
this damn thing does and where else can I use it - and I package (and
re-use) a larger quantity of smaller subroutines as a result.

Because "efficiency" of producing original source code leads to
gross ineffiency during debugging and subsequently as modifications
are made over the life of the software. IMFO, cryptic names and
cryptic syntax save one little during initial coding and cost _lots_
over the rest of the life of a project.
