Isn't that kind of like SAT no longer standing for anything and it just being the name of the test now? Or, was that movie just making that up?

No, it's more like if the SAT was partially named for the type of soil underlying the foundation of the building occupied by the school where the tests were first given, and then had its hype cycle fueled by shittily-paraphrased press releases from garden supply distributors.
