I agree and these are definetly just guides not hard rules to follow. What I'm really against is using a short name which don't convey any meaning.
For example 'getRtw' - which is a great shorthand for something we may never know until we go and find out. That is unacceptable naming anywhere regardless of scope, function, whatever. Use short but meaningful, pronouncable words as names and don't left out random characters from it (like usr instead of user) because thats just silly.
