Interesting, thanks for bringing this to my attention! Do you have any reference that explains this rule? I noticed on Wikipedia that introducing multiple examples used to actually have a different abbreviation (ee.g. or ee.gg.), so clearly something is already lost in translation here...
In any case, what I wrote is really just a shorthand for more cumbersome formulations (like "...open to making your data, e.g. the car [data], available?" - that would hopefully be correct?), and reducing text is the whole point of using an abbreviation in the first place. But I'm open to striving for more consistent usage, so if you can refer me to some kind of authority on how to mix Latin abbreviations with English text, I'd be curious about it!
