Exactly.
It was triggered from reviewing some of the latest bbt patches; I was
summarizing on a _paper_: "len is numpages, scanlen is ... readlen is ..."
and I thought to myself, isn't this crazy?
So yes, naming is important ;-)
(BTW scanlen and readlen are annoying, too... but they don't have a
concise meaning)
