When re-writing the Overloading section, it seemed "members" was the
predominant word used already in the docs. It will be good to use a
clear and consistent term througout the documentation. Considering the
existing usage and the fact that "variables" already has a separate
meaning for something else, I hope you'll consider using the word
"members" here instead of "variables." Then explain that there are many
other things people call them (and that they particularly hate being
called "late for dinner").
Thanks,
