"improve" your knowledge by pointing out that it's "Unformatted" with
two "t"s.

I'm Radoslaw (Radosław in fact) and I don't use spell checker for my e-mails. 'unformated' was a typo, I'm aware of double 't', alhtough my English is poor.
3. VTAM Unformated System Services (afaik).
Regrettably your "knowledge" - "afaik" - doesn't appear to extend
sufficiently "far". There is no problem with *VTAM* - aka the *SNA*
component of Communications Server (CS) - USS but there is a possible
ambiguity when the possible use of USS with the *IP* component of CS.
See 2.9.4, "Telnet USS table setup", in z/OS Communications Server IP
Configuration Reference Version 1 Release 8, SC31-8776-10, a manual with
which I would have expected you to be familiar.
Fine. You know *ONE* example, when USS means 'VTAM USS' and it can be confused
with 'Unix USS'.
I know much more examples, when use USS as 'Unix USS' with no ambiguity, that
means, everybody who understand technical documentation, also understand what
USS stands for. (and yes, I saw your stats about Unix and USS, but my
conclusion is contrary to yours: USS *is used as Unix System Services* in IBM
doco).
Please do me the courtesy of reading my posts before pontificating. If
you memory needs refreshing, please read through my very recent posts on
this topic. I'll say it again for your benefit fort the umpteenth time,
I challenged the *belief*, not the *usage*.
I read all the posts, including yours. A lot of text. Actually I have other duties as well, so I did not pay to much attention to each of them. Now I'm trying to guess your point, but I cannot. I don't understand. In fact, even in the post I respond to you mentioned a lot of things, including anarchy, democracy and elections. I must be dumb, because I still don't see any reason to avoid some acronyms.
Just as example: ETR means Electronic Technical Response and External Time Reference. Both are allowed by acronyms puritans. Sometimes it makes confusion. Why USS cannot be used as Unix System Services, since English language rules don't say acronym cannot be ambigous, and have to be approved by IBM.
