No because jay-peg actually makes sense and fits well, just like NASA makes sense and fits well. You can say NASA and JPEG without having to introduce additional letters to make it work. Unlike “Gooey”, “Sequel”, or “Scuzzy” which all require the addon of more letters to actually work
You can just see JPEG and intuitively go “Oh Jay-PEG” you can’t say the same for SCSI

You have to “add” letters for JPEG to be pronounceable.
Where? you can pronounce “J” 2 ways. “Je” and “Jay”
“PEG” stands on its own, and it’s also a word, “peg”
So when you pronounce Jay-PEG you’re just sounding out the “J” and pronouncing the word “PEG”. No letters have been added to make it pronounceable
In contrast to “Sequel”/SQL where you need to add a vowel “e” and a consonant “u” to get “sequel”
You literally added the A and the Y to say “jay.”
LMAO that was just for easier visualization of the pronunciation of the letter J

And you’re not saying “Jay Pee Ee Gee.”
Why make a bizarre exception for one letter?

Do you pronounce GIF “Gee-if?”
