Yes, acronyms arent really part of internet shorthand because they arent completely phonetic. It also takes some intelligence to recognize, or to decipher their meaning within a given context. Plus they do acutually take a significantly smaller amount of time to write as opposed to internet shorthand, in which some words have the exact same amound of characters, but spelled phonetically. IE: "kewl".
