I hate reading code that says (elt decoded 5) and then have to look up the doc string and then count to be able to tell what it's doing
I dislike that too. Luckily, it doesn't happen too often for me. I try to avoid it by using format-time-string instead of decode-time.
What do Common Lisp hackers do? Common Lisp has a similar function decode-universal-time, so they must have a similar problem.
Where in the source code would you put the accessors?
