If you're writing only once, sure, have as long class names as you want, since you yourself don't want to maintain your code in the future apparently.

Well, I don't appreciate the snarky comment, quite honestly. But okay, I'll assume you have had more experience than me, and you've managed things I haven't, have a good day.

Sorry, but the snarkiness was in your comment first, and when you said you didn't want to maintain those classes, that's exactly what it sounded like to me, that, well, you didn't want to maintain said code. If you had a different point I'd be happy to hear it.
