I would suggest that bare type names are rarely appropriate for use a variable names, except in toy examples. Or small enough functions. Small functions are not necessarily toys.

Hmm, I hadn't considered that case. I guess I tend not to write too many support functions where generic names would be appropriate (most of my Python code is very domain specific).

Cheers, Nick.
