Is it really so much harder to type PNCL vs. 9E? Are you trying to save time? Disk space on the internet?

By my count it is only 2 more letters yet nearly everyone familiar with this segment of the industry would know what you meant if you typed PNCL instead of just the geeks who can spout off the IATA codes for every airline under the sun with just the slightest of prodding.
To recap, you typed 9E I'm assuming to save time or space? And then there needed to be several MORE posts before everyone is on the same page with what 9E is. Good thinking?

This goes for everyone who loves the little 2 letter identifiers that leave the rest of us scratching our heads.
