| Summary | 0010614: Inconsitent naming of data in Responses | ||||
| Description | The same data has different names in different Response types. E.g. OrderHistoryEntry.timestamp vs. CheckPaymentUnpaidResponse.creation_time. Expected: data with same meaning has same name in all data types. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
| In principle, you are right. But we have seen things break very badly from renaming fields, and I don't see us doing any major rename fests at any point in the predictable future, simply because that's a LOT of (potential) breakage causing a lot of work for limited gain. Plus, we just don't have the resources of keeping a dozen developers from introducing new inconsistencies. So sure, we should try when introducing, but I don't see us doing a major push to fix these anytime soon. | |
