Disagree. With regard to fundamental algorithms, I think it's objectively easier to read with single letter variables.

Short variables for sure. I don't have a problem with single letter versions, personally; I don't know how you can say they're "objectively better". Seems like something inherently subjective.

Fundamental algorithms are like elegant math equations. Like a fine wine, they taste better without a mountain of sugar in an absurd college party concoction involving 5 other alcohols and some pineapple for shirts and giggles.

You're comparing it with something that is almost the textbook example of subjective.
