  1. It's not a strict rule. Nobody will bash you for writing "Perl" to refer to the compiler at the beginning of a sentence,
  2. s/(?=acronym)/back/ and you're done! And it's not "years afterwards". It was never intended to be an acronym since the beginning. It should've been clean and polished like a... ehm Pearl. But rumors are that there already existed a language called like that.
