(Only somewhat tongue-in-cheek )
That seems to imply that any type that is somewhat complicated 
would be named handle and most of the important types in large
systems are somewhat complicated types and therefore all of the
important types would be named handle.  In source code names,
the difference between a "_" character and a "." character is not
that much, so this style is similar to having to tack "_type" at the
end of all type names:  List.Handle and List_Type are both distasteful
to me when all I'd need is List to indicate the nature of the type!
