"Commercial" is long, so could we shorten that to "RDBMS"? ;-)

P.S. Or C-RDBMS? Would that work for everyone? Then how about the
difference between Dataphor and an RDBMS that is non-existent? Existence?
So, when we want to talk about an actual RDBMS that we all agree is an
implementation of the relational model and is an actual product from an
actual vendor, can we just use the term "Dataphor" (like Kleenex?) to mean
that? That would leave RDBMS available again to use for products that
database vendors say are RDBMS products, right?
