ACRONYMs and Speaking Starbuckian


I’m not the most sophisticated Starbucks consumer but I might be if I could order a drink using the Starbuckian language. Why can’t the name of the drinks be simpler. I grew up in the information technology industry and we made everything easier (HA HA) with three letter acronyms that made sense to all of our teams members and no sense to our business partners. I don’t know why our business partners didn’t get it, after all it  seemed so straightforward and it shortened the PowerPoint presentation. Unfortunately it lengthen the discussions and explanations.  The presentation looked cool.  Anyway back to Starbucks drinks.  I love the Skinny Cinnamon Dolce Latte drink but couldn't this be reduced to "VSCDL"?  I don't know how your would say it . "Vis-skittle"?. The first letter “V” is for the serving size and is replaceable by either of  other sizes like “T” for Tall, “G” for Grande, or in this case “V" for Venti. Regular black coffee could be as simple as “HB” for Hotel Blend.  I don’t know what we can do for weird requests like for example, “I would like a Venti Skinny Cinnamon Dolce Latte with 1/4 soy, whip cream on top and a light sprinkle of nutmeg.”  Try ordering this one in French or some Asian dialect.
