Unfortunately, a lot of so called objective criteria are either entirely subjective or difficult to measure. Are variable names that begin with special characters like '$' easier for the brain to handle than those without? It'd be an interesting topic for a study (assuming one could be done), but lacking any clear empirical evidence, debates will rage on about this and other minutia. Meanwhile, I'm going to keep using Python. ;)
