Well that makes no sense. If your view is that “it’s an acronym or it isn’t” then you pronounce it as individual letters or as a word. But the reality of language is much messier than arbitrary rules people come up with. If people pronounce it as if it’s a word in its own right, that means that’s how it works. Just as with laws of physics, if what we observe contradicts the rule, the rule was wrong.

What rule? I just go by what I read in the 90s about what the creators thought.
