    Wasn’t arguing that, just trying to be helpful in case you might not have known what RTFA meant. I agree there’s an overabundance of acronyms, and also new slang terms for complex ideas and situations. I’m sure at least some of the reason is to save keystrokes, but the downside is that it ingrains a habit of oversimplying everything, which deteriorates thinking skills.
