Yes it is...? We only respect the score if !oomable, which is set to
oom_kill_all_tasks.

Sounds good.

No, we should be striving for short and sweet mnemonics that express a
concept (oom applies to group, not member tasks) instead of underscore
sentences that describe an implementation (upon oom, kill all tasks in
the group).
It's better to have newbies consult the documentation once than making
everybody deal with long and cumbersome names for the rest of time.
Like 'ls' being better than 'read_and_print_directory_contents'.
