      That’s the only way I’ve ever heard it pronounced in actual speech. Of course, the only times I have heard people talking about it IRL is in CS classes and the like. I don’t know many tech nerds IRL to have conversations about computer standards with.

    Someone once told me that JWT is pronounced “jot”, so I do. People call me a lunatic for it, but I still do.

    The joke is that ‘isekai’ in Japanese translates to “another world” in English. 1985 was truly another world, as anyone who was there might attest.
