Right, which is presumably why fedora-review doesn't object.  I assume the
guideline is against introducing underscores to separate name parts, not to
expurgate them.

The good reason is to spell the name correctly, regardless of capitalization. 
If I want to search the archive for what the author calls SuperLU_MT, I'd
expect "repoquery --search superlu_mt" to find it, and it doesn't.  Likewise
for DL_POLY, which I lower-cased but spelt correctly (as a veteran of DL).
