Ha ha, I googled it and even after seeing the definition still didn't
understand - we must be getting old ;-)

Regarding the use of acronyms - while I agree with you as a general
principle, I wonder about this case. Since the argument IIUC is that "a
general user won't know the domain well enough to understand the acronym",
would they understand "abstractSyntaxTree"?!

Now I am wonder: is it really correct to call syntax tree as abstract when it is really implemented?
AST is very known term but now when I read it word by word I have such questions :).

That, to me, is as opaque as
the acronym for one not acquainted with the domain, and may buy us little at
the cost of a good amount of extra typing. Maybe keep the acronym and add a
good method comment���
