No, if the breaks in a name are obvious, I still prefer names without
underscores. I don't think `1d` or `2d` needs to be separated from the
word, "in1d"
I always remember how to spell unique1d, but I usually have to check
how to spell at_least_2d, or maybe atleast_2d or even atleast2d.

how about

def setmember1d_nu(a, b):
    ...

#aliases
set_member_1d_but_it_does_not_really_have_to_be_a_set = setmember1d_nu
in1d = setmember1d_nu
