Refactor: Rename for Clarity
Improve code readability through better naming.
Naming Principles
1. Names Should Reveal Intent
// BAD: let d: Int
// GOOD: let elapsedDays: Int
2. Names Should Be Searchable
// BAD: if status == 1 { }
// GOOD: if status == .active { }
3. Names Should Match Abstraction Level
// BAD: func getFromNetworkAndParseJSON()
// GOOD: func fetchUserProfile()
