Right.  I recall that this has been discussed in the OpenPGP WG years
ago.  IIRC, the conclusion was that the international spelling alphabet
has been developed just for this purpose and that all kind of shortcut
word lists would lead to more confusion than plain spelling of hex
digits.  Recall that the spelling alphabet works well under a bad
S/N-ratio and thus also between speakers of different mother tongue.
