Other people's code to me has one very
important advantage: If it's broken, it's
other people's responsibility to fix it.
So if it is in a library that I can use
without having to include (and use) all
the rest of the universe, if the interface
design seems sound to me, and if it does
not seem hard to get bugs fixed, I'll use
it. I have enough own code to care for.

You seem to work alone then. If you work in
a team, it safes a lot of time if you call
a class 'SomeSingleton'. People either know
what it is or can be pointed to google to
find out. If you name it anything without
"Singleton" in it, you'll have to explain a
lot without getting any advantage for it.
And I hate it if someone writes a comparison
function and labels it "sort".

Mostly, yes. There's two or sometimes three in the team but none of us
know the right name for anything and we usually work independantly.

We also have next to no technical documentation although that should
change over the next year or so as we're now aiming for certification
and assurance. Apparently :)
