I spelled out my arguments in favor of (50g) -style above, i believe it is an evolutionary stable strategy. HP-50g: style seems the least acceptable to me because I believe it will cause drift (hp-50g, hp 50g, Hp 50g will all end up in different parts of the list and some of them will be lexicographically before the "canonical" form, so new posters will pick incorrect pattern). However, ANYTHING consistent is better than the mess that is now. Whoever does the renaming should pick whatever he likes and just do it. THere is a good chance that massively prevalent pattern, whatever it is, will be self-propagating.
