Yes, that is a bit annoying, although it does correspond to "classic"
Elisp naming. I personally prefer Scheme style "file-attribute->size".
In any case the container is not a single attribute but a set, so to
be excruciatingly correct, the name ought to be ‘file-attributes-size’
(or ‘file-attributes->size’), which is even less pleasant. :-/
