I don't think a general "things to avoid" section should be advocating not naming things... in fact I would advocate the reverse. Name as many things as possible, at least until you have a good feel for how much point-freeness is going to result in code that you can read again in 6 months time.
Another reason to name more things is that it can make debugging easier, especially in something like buddha where it tells you: name args => result Also, avoiding excessive higher-order code can make debugging easier too. Cheers, Bernie.
