— I found the response very good :)

— Sharing it in case someone else does too

— I found this funny:

There is a tendency for node programmers to use non descript variable names. This is a very bad trend and should be stopped. Out of context what is rl, or fs, only those in the know will understand. If I did not know better? the persistence of these abbreviations in node.js code would suggest a form of deliberate elitism.

Use descriptive names for variable, just because everyone uses a particular abbreviation does not make it a good choice of name.

— Do you guys find that true?

— Fs is a very common abbreviation for filesystem in the computer range, not only node

— I think it's ok to name it like that, extreme abbreviation is cancer anyway, but it applies to every language
