Eep on the autocomplete. For me that's a must-have to enable clear code. Calling SomeFunctionWithAReallyDescriptiveName would get pretty painful pretty quickly if I had to type it out every time.

No clue if it's true, but this is why I assumed a lot of older computing stuff is often abbreviated to the point of obfuscation.

How frequently do you actually have to type it out though?

You can always copy-paste from nearby code that also calls it.
