Can we standardize our SharePoint acronyms?

We have the following acronyms almost canonized:

XLS - Excel Services
PPS - PerformancePoint Services
SSRS - SQL Server Reporting Services
VGS - Visio (Graphics) Services

But, for PowerPivot, I don't see anyone using an acronym. Since PowerPivot is really 2 different products, should we call it:

PP4E: PowerPivot for Excel
PP4S: PowerPivot for SharePoint

Your thoughts?
