To illustrate, there's a consumer rights TV snow here with a segment called "F.U. Tube", where members of the public describe ripoffs and other product failures in video form.

We could require it to be spelled "uf" unless "from __future__ import billy_connolly_as_FLUFL" is in effect.
That seems like a reasoned and measured response.
