This sounds like the advice to prefer the variable name 'ii' over 'i' because you can easily search for it. I loath such advice because it causes the code to become ugly. Similarly, there are 'YODA Conditions' which make code hard to comprehend which solves an insignificant error that is easily caught with tooling. The problem with advice like these is you will encounter deranged developers that become obsessive about such things and make the code base ugly trying to implement dozens of style rules. Code should look good. Making a piece of text look good for other humans to comprehend I consider to be job #1 or #2 for a good developer.
