I thought it was sufficiently clear, so that's how it got applied.
Plus, you refer people to the proper perldoc sections.  That's easily
enough for people to avoid getting tripped up.

The section is titled "Names that are no longer special" for ultra
clarity after a brief conversation on #p5p and has explanatory text.
So it doesn't imply that the "$#" is deprecated as a sigil.
