Unfortunately, even a person who uses no abbreviations may be caught
by the current policy. Which is to say, even if I faithfully used
the TIME, TIMESTEP and TIMEUNIT keywords unabbreviated, I would still
be in a hurtful world. :-)

If the policy is really that TIME is ambiguous, then it shouldn't be
allowed to be compiled in the first place.
