Yes, but that's just saying "programmer do XXX to avoid bugs" and
not helping the programmer do it. Following a global variable naming
convention is just as good.
Especially in multi-programmer systems, say a networked game, a server,
or any apps with Lua plug-ins you are left to hope that programmers
follow your rules and trying to fix the system when they don't.
