Nah. It's just that it's customary to accept an Acronym if someone 
else offers it to you. It's considered a compliment. 

Which is why my original theory became MAGIC DISHWASHER when I'd 
called it 'The Spying Game'. I woke up one morning and found that 
Marina had mutated it into a kitchen appliance [grin].

Admittedly I hadn't worked out an acronym for Spying Game, so I 
couldn't plead that one pre-existed. ;-)

But still, I got to keep the Safe House, so that's OK [even bigger 
grin].
