But for every step that turns out to be "correct" you now have to go back and redo that in your held-out sample anyways. So it's not like you get to save on repeating the work -- IIUC you just changed it from depth-first execution order to breadth-first execution order.

??? What's up with native English speakers and random acronyms of stuff that isn't said that often? YMMV, IIUC, IANAL, YSK... Just say it and save everyone else a google search.

So just to make sure I'm on the same page: you're bemoaning how commonly people abbreviate uncommon sayings?
I'm bemoaning the fact that I have to google random acronyms every time an American wants to say the most basic shit as if everyone on the internet knows their slang and weird four letter abbreviations
And googling those acronyms usually returns unrelated shit unless you go specifically to urban dictionary
And then it's "If I understand correctly". Oh. Of course. He couldn't be arsed to type that
FWIW IMO YTA

I'm not a native English speaker, but IIUC is clearly 'If I Understand Correctly'. If you look at the context it's often fairly easy to figure out what an initialism means. I mean even I can usually deduce the meaning and I'm barely intelligent enough to qualify as 'sentient'.
