The size of the keyword can be larger, as long as it is not used very often.
In Delphi we have words like initialization, finalization or implementation
which are really a nuisance to type. But they appear only once in a file. I
think sor is a bit short. I first though it was some kind of boolean
operation (like or, and and not). Superellipsoid is ok for me. (Supertoroid
would be nice too.)
