So I've been doing C programming since the early 80's and leading
people doing that for at least 20 years, huh, more like 25 years.
As much as I wish people did what you suggest, they don't. And I
mean really good people, top 1%.
So I like the type_name style.
As with many things, I may like it but I don't always get it.

What are the types of those structures?
You can't tell because the names are meaningless. With more meaningful
names, it's usually possible to see what the type must be.
