Rust made the correct choice: things used most often should be assigned the shortest names. This "Huffman encoding" style is what natural languages have evolved toward as well. In 2023, if I were to write C, and didn't have existing guidelines to adhere to, I'd most probably introduce the same typedefs as the author here has done.
