The plus for primitives is that they don't have to be human readable. It's
possible to develop a system which more than covers the full range without
breaking 8 characters.

For example we use up to four characters (eg. 3-16) for fractions which are
always XX/48 where XX is <48. This could be done in one character. Likewise the
primitive type could be described in one character too. Take two characters to
label the short-form and you have four characters free for radii etc.

As long as you provide parts authors with a cheat sheet, this should work too.
Regardless, the naming scheme should be according to a regular system.
