In the general case I fully agree. It is ideal that the name of anything clearly indicates whatever is important about that thing.
But who is the viewer of that name?
How much context can they be assumed to have? The name of the class? The name of of the module? The nature and terminology of the business that the function serves? The nature and terminology of the related subsystems, infrastructure and libraries?
There is a context dependent local optimum for how to name something. There are conflicts of interest and trade-offs have to made.
