The only think we do is to avoid a standard HTML parsing to interpret <s> and <g> as standard tags. So, we use the greather/less syntax for that. If there is more commonly used acronyms like this, we can add them in the list. So, users may continue to use normal acronyms like this as usual without spaces.
