MVP. It means two things, both are polar opposites. Absolute bare minium product, or most valuable player / product.
Minimum Viable Product, yeah.
Also not an ~~initialism~~ acronym, but an initialism. Unless you pronounce it "Muvapuh" or something.
Definitely an initialism.
Sorry, yes! That's what I actually meant 😄 Edited to reflect that. Thank you!

Someone at work insisted the MVP emoji meant Minimum Viable Product. I get that the term exists, and that we use it, but it's way more niche than Most Valuable Player, and it's certainly no emoji.
