Who comes up with such variable names, why isn't that person given a lesson on code maintainability?
The person who came up with it, Timwi, very clearly never ever wanted to have to deal with a moron who turned it on, had problems, and claimed they weren't sufficiently warned.

Code maintainability is not the only thing for which large software systems must be optimized.
