Second question, is there any reason not to use syntactic sugar for
distinctions between "multiply" and "
multpliedBy"? With the former being the suger, if the latter is a better
standard.

Statement needs some reference before we embark on changing names
for longer ones.  Cf. my previous post:

[If the rationale is "correct English", fine, but then all the
modules must be modified accordingly.]

It seems like both sides of the fence can be easily bridged here.

IMO, syntactic sugar should be justified by more than sparing
4 keystrokes, especially if we want to induce usage of proper
spelling.

The order of the static constants is also strange - I'm sure a more
logical order could be chosen.


I have rearranged the constants into the order 0, 1, 1/2, 1/3, 2/3, 1/4,
3/4 . I propose dropping the constants
for fifths and negative one. One needs to draw the line somewhere
reasonable. Any objections?
