I was going for shorter line length in the output.
I will note that we have only 47 instances of 'a\.k\.a' in the code
base, and about 117 instances of 'aka '. The latter does include a few
false positives, but it also includes *all* the user-visible
occurrences (mostly in CPU model names).
It is literally in the dictionary as "aka":

... unlike e.g. "e.g." which the dictionary does show as such, albeit
with a very reluctant "also eg" in very small letters:

Definitely not a hill I'm prepared to die on though :)
