I’ve played around with reactive streams, and one of the main issues with this
naming convention is that it really confuses the compiler when you try to use
trailing closure syntax:
aStream.on { nextOrError in
}
The compiler has a really hard time inferring what the type of nextOrError is
without explicitly typing the parameter or not using trailing closure syntax.
Using .onNext { … } or .onError { … } bypasses this problem entirely.
