I believe that foreach_reverse is supported to be being deprecated in favor of
using foreach with retro().
That being said, even if foreach_reverse were staying, I wouldn't think that it
would be used in code with enough frequency for it to make much sense to be
particularly worried about how long it takes to type an underscore. If you were
typing it all the time maybe, but how often does the average programmer need to
iterate over a range in reverse? It happens, but not all that frequently, I
think.
