Because, as I said in the first post, the easiest way to maintain the 
hungarian notation correctly is to use an IDE sophisticated enough you don't 
need hungarian notation to start with.

It's the same reason people prefer "self-documenting code" over "comments". 
And the hungarian notation isn't generally useful enough (especially in 
something like C) to warrant going thru the code base to fix it by hand when 
you change a declaration.

To be fair, this is the first time I've seen this happen so blatently, but 
it's an excellent reason to avoid it in the future. :-)
