Personally I think people should stop abbreviating things that were never meant to be abbreviated and just speak english.
Have you ever done work with US Military contracts?

I swear they make the acronyms then come up with something that loosely fits after the fact. For the given example, most of the contracts I've seen use SPoF so they can say "ess-pawf" (yes, in that accent).
