Longer names also force me to describe the variable's purpose: I must know the variable's purpose. It's easier to code when you know exactly what your code is supposed to do. Longer names capture that. They help me have a clearer intent for the code I write.
But some people use vision more, some audition... Maybe we code accordingly.
