I'm afraid that if we start being PC / hypersensitive / somehow after people in good faith even on watch acronyms, then it'll quickly get more sad than intended on an international forum...

For instance, for Italians "ALS" has no connection whatsoever to the medical disease, whose acronym is SLA... Are you willing to check every acronym in every language before making your next contribution to our forum?
Also, since I have nothing against people affected by LS (the standard medical abbreviation for "lichen sclerosus Lynch syndrome"), I don't see why LS should be an acceptable acronym.
Have a great day ;-)
