That's (sorry, that is) what happens when there is a difference of
opinion.  It may be that this issue has been properly studied, but all
the early attempts to inject some data into these sorts of debate were,
in my opinion, rather superficial.

This is not a good argument.  For one thing everyone uses abbreviations
and contractions in written English.  You've (sorry, you have) used two
in that very paragraph.  It's (sorry it is) very common to write things
like "the UK", "the USA", "e.g", "i.e.", "etc." in prose.  But prose is
very different to code.  For one thing the contractions and
abbreviations used in English are few (in proportion) and largely
well-known, so my saying that they are ubiquitous in English is not a
good counter-argument either.

Again, this not a good argument because the kinds of text are so very
different.  Names in code are invented and so, to some extent, arbitrary
where most words are not.  Ab wds in Eng wd be akwd, but "for (int i =
0; i < length; i++)" is not (in my opinion) despite the short name i.

What's needed are some more nuanced examples and/or rules.  My own
preference is to take into account the length of the scope of the name
as well as considerations such as convention and generality of use.  I
consider "index" no better than "i" when the scope is very short (as it
usually should be) and when the use is general, but "index_of_largest"
might be better in a less general context.

Brevity-over-clarity is always bad, almost by definition.  We should try
to avoid terms like "overly short names" and "excessive abbreviation" in
this kind of debate because they beg the question.
