I think 'approve' is the wrong word. Your approval doesn't matter one way or the other. I don't use acronyms because I don't need them -- my typing is fast enough. And I don't know them anyway. I think most stem from days of yore when amateur radio operators (HAMS) used Morse code to communicate (I did) and hundreds of such acronyms were in daily use -- some in voice communication as well. I remember a few and I'm sure those haven't changed much. But its a matter of taste and style that doesn't require approval or disapproval. I'm not trying to start an argument, merely making an observation.
