helm-org-rifle's dependencies are libraries which have been around for
over 6 years and are used by many thousands of people. The one-letter
names are because Emacs Lisp has no namespaces, and the convention is to
use package prefixes on all symbols, so long package names make for long
symbol names, which makes programming tedious.

This is good to know - I don't really have any rhyme/reason as to what

I use and don't use; For example, I use Helm which isn't part of default

Emacs.

Thanks again,
