Stefan Krah <stefan at bytereef.org> added the comment:

It is one thing to name something __vectorcall, and quite another to mix camel and normal case.

When I'm scanning the code very quickly, I initially parse _PyObject_VectorcallDict as PyObject_VectorallDict or_PyObject_Vector_callDict.


>From the perspective of reading, it is one of the most obnoxious
names I've seen in the Python code base.
