In my own coding, I follow the rule of "leave it out if the type tells

subjective decision, and therefore dangerous to put in a coding style

I think that sometime the type is not enough to know everything you need, so 
having the name gets you closer (of course, if the name is representative 
enough).

Yes, I agree. I meant "if and only if" when I said "if". So leave out 
the parameter name if the type tells you all you need to know, but 
include the name if the type is insufficient.
