But then consider this: Do you say 'Nasə or "En Eh Es Eh" 
Nope, UX predates that period. It encompasses the user interface, regardless if it is graphical. And by graphical we mean pixel-based, as computer screens used to be character-based before that. I still remember all the fun we had back then with incompatible graphics standards like SVGA and Hercules

There's also HMI or human-machine interface (which also includes input/output peripherals). But that term gives me a vision of plugging a cable into my skull
NASA is pronounced with a short "a" sound, as represented in the dictionary phonetically as | ˈnasə |
Or the “humane interface” if you take it all the way back to Jef Raskin…crimsonwarlock wrote: ↑14 Jun 2022Nope, UX predates that period.

Nobody speaks each individual letter in this acronym, i.e. En A Es A (NASA), rather they say | ˈnasə |
So it's weird that, for some acronyms, people sometimes spell out the letters and others try to pronounce it as a word.
Language is interesting and weird!
