Not to mention it’s a made up rule that doesn’t apply to literally any other acronym (radar, sonar, NASA, NATO, scuba, etc.)
It also doesn’t apply when the whole point of the name was to be a spoof on the peanut butter. It even has a saying to go along with it so that more people would adopt it. “Choosy developers choose gif”. People can say they don’t care what the original creator intended, because words are malleable, but what other word on the planet comes with an actual pronunciation guide along with it to sell the word!
