Yes, it's possible to refer to something with natural language (in fact, I 
personally find that better than using a function name when both options 
exist).

The underscores are C artifacts to replace spaces that do not belong to 
natural language so if one uses underscores, I'll always take it as a 
direct reference to C code.

The quote still has "the warnings" though (but I see Reinette already 
noted that).
