Good luck with renaming field to identifier with different length.

Looks like we're off-topic here and just criticizing others habits
while showing ours. So lets continue!

I've discovered my median Lua chunk size is about 12 lines (with 70
chars limit and 2-space indent). That's to talk about "screens".

I use upvalues mostly in recursive functions (where you can't call
itself without previous declaration).

And separate almost any "function" statement as separate module.
That is why I was need relative require().
