I can not speak for C but in ruby you can make use of aliases. So: > def foo_bar end; alias foobar foo_bar This may be excessive to want to do so manually but you could batch-generate aliases to these methods on your own. It is not the same as having it on the same top-level support for the whole language (to compile it), but since the claim was that "ruby does not have style insensitivity", I feel that claim is ... weird because you could enforce it in different ways, probably even making use of rubocop's autocorrect option once you setup a style guide (either by also adding aliases as is perhaps, or using ruby code to do so).
