Why doesn't a tool for an English-like language display its native
English-like property names by default?
Making that change is the first thing I encourage newcomers to do so
they can learn faster, getting reinforcement of property names every
time they use the Inspector.
Yeah. I'm still puzzled about why that isn't the default. Or why that
choice even exists at all.
Does someone really think that "Can't Delete" is easier to understand
than "cantdelete"? Or "3D" is easier to understand than "threed"? Or
"Text Size" easier than "textSize"?
And why is "Width" easier to understand than "width"?
For that matter, why is "Foreground Fill" a replacement for the
combination of "foregroundColor" and "foregroundPattern"?
