Yes. Another very effective way to get your code below 80 characters is to shorten all names to a single letter. Since you don't need to restrict yourself to monocase Roman letters (as I had to in my earliest programming days, in BASIC), it's actually quite practical to uniquely name everything in a single character; you could save enormous amounts of horizontal space. Then, aggressively "import as" to do the same with remote symbols (you might need two characters for those), and you'll be able to write everything in just a few tight symbols!
