I agree with this view entirely. getSomething is a pattern worth keeping
for developer sanity.
JS programmers use short names for these things. Like $() instead of
getElementById.
No, one group of JS programmers do that, it is not representative of the
entire industry at all, not one of the numerous multi-tens of thousand line
JS projects I've been involved with have done the above, and developer
strategies that believe 1 character method names is clear are not going to
care one jot what the original name in the DOM is.
