A nice intro to making macros, which is one of the most powerful parts of LaTeX indeed.

Autoref itself seems a fine way of messing up your references and making your source code less readable. The beauty of naming is that you have the context at hand. Moving around blocks of text, or adding and removing text, happens throughout the process. With autoref, you now have to remember to _sometimes_ update the refs or get subtly different references. I wouldn't trust myself to get that right.
