You type the name of the compiler by hand a lot? Wouldn't it be invoked from a Makefile or IDE 90% of the time? Besides, if you really object to a name longer than 4 characters, you can always make an alias, but if there's a name class, it's harder to alias from an ambiguous name to a non-ambiguous one. So it's better to err on the side of non-ambiguity.
