I believe that's the Emacs argument, yes. In particular, I believe it's Stefan's argument - dunno whether it is in some way "official". What I was saying was the _I_ use suffix `-flag' for an option and suffix `-p' (or `p') for a non-option variable. That makes things very clear (to me). Add `-flag' to any of the names considered above, and the ambiguity and lack of clarity is diminished, if not dispelled altogether. And suffix `-flag' is not "disallowed", AFAIK. Of course, Isearch already has other boolean options that do not use such a suffix.
