Ya, that is ridiculous, honestly. While it's still all subjective, you gotta draw the line somewhere! I'm a stickler for consistency myself and would be ok with `meter_to_millimeter` but the `convert_object_type_from_` is pure nonsense. Like, assuming you're talking about a language with objects, what the heck else would you be converting?? EDIT: requiring verbs in function names is also overrated. It's one of those things that's usually a good idea, but if comes down to employing some taste to decide when it might not be. EDIT 2: I'm now upset for you for having to put up with that, lol.
I’d personally go with a single function like “convert_object_type” and pattern match into different clauses such as “convert_object_type(obj, from: m, to: mm)” and so on.
