I don't find the argument that the terminal 's' in 'PoOps' represents
the plural terminus of 'Principles' at all persuasive.  It seems to me
to be a desperate expedient to justify the indefensible.

My reasons for preferring 'PrOp' are three: 1) it is innocuously
pronounceable; 2) it is devoid of the vaguely scatological
connotations of its competitors; and 3) it is less clumsy than they.

Finally, of course: À chacun son goût!
