Yow.  I would personally consider that one a disaster, but my vote
doesn't count for much.  I very much like the idiom of an instance
being a lowercased version of its class name, in some cases.

I guess it depends on one's definition of "distaster"...

There will be plenty of time to argue over this stuff before it
becomes really relevant, in any case.
