I couldn't resist, and I searched my edk2-devel archives for it (for the four letter stem, that is), which go back to ~April 2012. I'm reporting that in all these years, this has indeed been the first use of the word. (Not counting the base64 encodings of some binary files that were posted to the list, in patches -- but those encodings hardly contain "words".) Can we stay civil, please? (And no, I'm not a prude; in fact I've shown such restraint in my own word choices on this list that I can only congratulate myself.)
