Description

Enforce using named capture groups in regular expression.

Numbered capture groups like (...) can be difficult to work with, as they are matched by their position and not by a descriptive name. Named capture groups ((?<name>...)) associate a descriptive name with each match, making the regular expression more readable and its intent clearer.
