Would it be adequate to say think hard about keeping core names
concise, but prefer

I don't think I agree. I've been programming in Ruby, and I

I think that standard functions ought not to have underscores *most of
the time*, because their presence indicates something that could be
better named or is miscategorized. However, for methods, especially
advanced or introspective methods, I think longer

That's fine--I don't think of anything behind the META curtain as core,

I think .valid is an excellent argument for underscores all by itself.
Unless you already know what it means you don't have any clue that
its not actualy the word valid instead of val_id. I don't know of any
other problems like this, but at very least that should be changed.
Don't we still try

I think it's an argument for reconsidering the name of that method.

Okay, I'll just
Hi,
Audrey mentioned that Perl 6 is trying to avoid underscores in the
core library.
It came up when I asked why valid isn't called value_id because
if ( $user_input.valid ) { } reads fairly confusingly.
So, a few questions:
