I don't particularly like it, therefore, but I'm a fan of having text instead of

learn what they mean) when there is a simple 4 letter word that makes
everything clear?

Because the 3 or 4 letter abbreviations aren't localized.
Sure, but we could easily localize them - we aren't restricted to any particular size, anyway, even though it should be short if possible (or an abbreviation if needed).
