They meant that a more ergonomic name would be "has_been_viewed_much", so you can filter by the inverse and still get the same result, but with a better name

I know what they meant, I was saying that imo the ergonomic name is has_not_been_viewed_much. it's directly expressing the property you are interested in, as opposed to expressing the negative property and comparing it to false.

How about rarely_viewed? Such expresses the property of interest, avoids the double negative issue, and is shorter?

Of course rarely might imply a frequency much lower than the cutoff and infrequently has a bit of the double negative issue. Tradeoffs.
