But you find the noise of "A_" more acceptable? that seems odd. I
prefer "_Type"; it doesn't try to introduce any more meaning than is
already there from the language rules.

At least we agree that some noise in the type name is necessary, due
to a wart in the language. 

I use "wart" to mean "ugliness, but not easy to fix, so we can't call
it a bug".
