I didn't choose the integer suffixes for types because:
1. they are slower to type
2. they just aren't pretty to look at
3. saying and hearing `int` is so much easier than `eye thirty-two`. Just imagine relying on a screen reader and listening to all those eye thirty two's
4. 5 minutes with the language, and you know what size `int` is, as there is no ambiguity. I haven't run across anyone confused by it in 20 years :-)
