Comment (by jaragozzine):

 Instead of "Pretty" and "Unpretty," can we move to something less
 subjective and more telling of why one would choose one or the other?
 Possibly "pretty" becomes "human-readable" and "unpretty" is better stated
 as "machine" or something to suggest that those URLs do not inform humans
 where the link goes or its subject matter? We don't pick "pretty"
 permalink because they look better; we pick them so that a person can read
 the URL and get an inkling as to what they would get if they click.
