Sorry, that was a rather truncated message.
What I meant to say was, there are filesystems with uncomfortable
limits for filenames, like 8.3 characters or max 14 characters.
So we should try to keep filenames short.

Yes, the manpages must have full names.  However, for unfortunate
systems that don't support man or html there might be a single
clc.txt file which contains the documentation from all the clc*.man
pages.
