"AES" is a very common way to identify the whole of apocalypses, exegeses and synopses.

I've never seen that usage. Super searching for it I find few matches, the most recent of which (outside of this thread) is "use Blowfish or AES or some other cryptographic standard".

Because "/^[AES]\d\d$/" is such a specific pattern, and because it has achieved the same status as "perlop" in normal usage

Never seen that either. Doing an enhanced super search for that pattern finds that it has never been used for that purpose at PerlMonks in the last year except in this thread.

And I doubt in 10 years "A03" will immediately trigger the proper memory while "apocalypse 3" probably will.

I'm sure you hang out in some place where the usage is as you say. But if I saw "S03" at PerlMonks, I'd have no idea what it was supposed to mean and I bet (based on data) that many, nay most, PerlMonks visitors would be as lost.

The fact that [grep] skips searching has had its problems and so is at least partially an example of something to avoid.

I don't see myself wanting to link to a whole apocalypse much. I see myself being much more likely to want to link to a specific part of an apocalypse. At this point I doubt the official hosts of these documents have sufficiently addressed this desire, but I'll let someone else investigate and report if they care to.

Elsewhere you mentioned hosting the A, E, and S at PerlMonks (don't forget whatever the Pugs things are called). This was already discussed and nixed by Larry himself.
