Seems to be snob value!

In the same sort of situation, when the RAF started flying "Tornado's" in
the early 80's, the ground crew called them "Tornado's" whilst the aircrew
preferred to call them "Tore-nah-doe".

The ground crew name was the official option. Reallity had them called all
things un-printable!!
