   I am on the fence with this PR.
   
   Personally I don't see any benefit in consistent naming of local variables as long as the local variables have names that can be understood. To me a local variable named `length` is in no way clearer than one called `len`.
   
   We will never get a consistency at the level your tool is striving for on a project that relies on numerous volunteer contributors. I don't see myself frustrating contributors by asking them to rename their local variables on patches.
   
   @garydgregory if you see value in this and want to merge the PR after the changes you've requested have been made I won't stand in the way but I'll otherwise ignore it myself.
