Temporary-looking name

Line items named like tmp, test, old or copy tend to stay in the model; delete them or rename them to say what they hold.

What MaxCheck detects

A line item named only with a number, containing \ @ or ^, or containing a whole word like tmp, temp, test, tst, del, old or copy. Words are matched whole, so "Model" or "Delivery" never match.

Why it hurts

Temporary or junk line items tend to stay in the model, cost space and confuse the next modeller.

Example

Taken from the rule's own test cases: formulas it must flag, and formulas it must not.
