"systemctl is pronounced..."

This is for SCIENCE, so please boost if you feel so inclined!

(If you don't use systemctl, please substitute with any *ctl tool you do you use, or how you WOULD say it if you did. sysctl, kubectl, launchctl, ioctl, etc.)

There you have it.

For my part, I said "system control" UP UNTIL I heard the cuttle/cuddle expansion. Now I only say "system cuttle", in my head or out loud.

If my audience looks confused, I will either explain or alter my expansion.

I won't change my use, nor do I expect anyone else to change theirs. I just wanted to poll a decent sample of people.
