I think I was more confused by the way it was stated. What about saying:
"Group names must follow the same rules as C identifiers"
Saying "the rule of C identifiers" made me think more of "the rule of
law", and thought that this had something to do with rules of C
zealots, and those that identify with "C" ;-)
