You might have a different opinion once you have written a few tens of thousands lines of numerical code. There is a reason why mathematical notation is so terse - much terser than the “garbage” you bemoan, in fact.
Also, regarding your specific example, `eigen` would be ambiguous. Do you mean eigenvalues? Eigenvectors? Eigenfunctions? Eigenspaces?
