Why are all the parameters full words except 'labs'? I find it jarring because to me 'lab' is short for laboratory, not label.

I suspect for consistency with ggplot - the same reason why ‘aes’ is shorthand and everyone forgets that it stands for “aesthetic”.

Thanks, that makes sense. I actually just parsed aes as related to encryption without even considering how weird that was given the contect.

I get it – in my (limited) opinion, there's a lot that's quirkily (but avoidably) named about ggplot and the surrounding R ecosystem in general.

He's open to API suggestions, you should open an issue

[matijsvzuijlen]

Yes, I will do that!

That's fixed in 0.4.0 awaiting approval for Typst Universe (plus other improvements in various areas).

Jesters would say it's because author's a fan of labradors. (source: he's my neighbour)
