Re the 10/20/50 look-ups in a func, I merely said that in the interests of creating a fictional scenario to express my point and, in turn, better ask my question. I assure you that I'n not ...

I'm disappointed that I mustn't have worded the question clearly enough to make that point obvious.

There's just no reason to use something like cW -- where you have to try to figure it out from context, eg. seeing cW:AddMessage(...), or go find where it's defined -- instead of a descriptive name like chatWindow.

With regards to the cryptic name cW; it's one frame of two within a small module called 'Chat'.
Lua Code:
local cB = f.chatButton;
local cW = f.chatWindow;
Trust me, if you were to see it in context, I'm sure you'd be hard pressed at getting confused.
I'll keep it like that as it makes a world of sense to me, but thank's for your advice. Each to their own, I suppose.
Thanks, but for me, this question was already answered.
