In fictional acronyms, priorities are reversed. It's not so important that the full name be clear, memorable and to the point; it matters much more that the actual acronym spell out a word or phrase, preferably a [[Meaningful Name|meaningful]], [[Rule of Cool|impressive]] (or just plain [[Rule of Funny|funny]]) one. This results in "backronyms", acronyms created before the names they allegedly stand for—if the acronym even stands for anything at all.
