What is *excessive* commenting?
There is no self-documenting code, nowhere.

No difference?
No, I don't find this silly. Both document (which word would you use?) a choice, in a way.
Integer: I need positive and negative numbers; I don't care about the range.
Natural: Negative numbers are not allowed.
type T is range -42 .. +42; -- no difference to Integer according to you?
This does not save me from documenting the code in separate design documents.
