I have a pretty simple reason for liking the enter/exit pair over the 
enter/leave pair.

In the former case, both words start with the letter 'e', providing an 
obvious visual pairing that doesn't exist in the latter case. Since 
we're talking about source code, the visual mnemonic means more to me 
than the exact semantics of the actual words.

Cheers,
Nick.
