Comment(by charris):

 I think folks who use the function will be able to deal with the multiple
 return values, my motivation for the shorter name is that most of the
 common functions come without underscores and logsigndet, while a
 possibility, is perhaps a bit long. As to the other, it adds a bit of
 clarity without any real performance impact and clarity counts for a lot
 in the long run.
