In case more people are wondering still: "SDV" is not an acronym but an initialism. TIL that in today's thread about TIL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11069206 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11069206

  In American English it's pretty well accepted that Acronym includes initialisms, and in fact the word initialism is hardly ever used.
