Yet I do say vee-ya for the holes in pcbs. So I say the same word both ways at different times.
And I guess I say route both ways at different times too now that I mention it.
(Fwiw route can be correctly pronounced differently in different circumstances: BrE is 'follow that [root] to the woodshop and [rowt] a nice profile on this piece'.)
(because you put "acronym" before "/short word")
