For people that work in the industry especially, it’s probably the case that various acronyms come as second nature, so they don’t even realise they are using them, as they are what they would naturally refer to things as - just as you’ve explained!
Equally, you probably almost never hear or read people spelling out the acronyms, so they almost take on definitions of their own as simply “new words” from a technical perspective. It’s easy to forget it’s even an acronym at all in this case. DTT or DSAT are probably good examples of that sort of thing.
