Bad example
Old codejavascript
| 1 | function fetchLatestStock() { ... } |
| 2 | function getLatestStock2() { ... } |

Notes (EN)
For neighboring operations with equivalent semantics, use a consistent verb that communicates local lookup versus remote retrieval.
Exceptions / Tradeoffs (EN)
Different behavior can justify get versus fetch; preserve public names until a caller-compatible migration is planned.
