Enterprise Resource Planning.

That makes a lot more sense than… uh… my first interpretation.

SAP anti-competitiveness mainly steams from how twisted they are that they mutilate the mind of their users, making them unable to use other software.

In this way this is similar to the BASIC programming language, but SAP ABAP language is even moreso.

Here is a quote about this

“It is practically impossible to teach good programming to students that have had a prior exposure to BASIC: as potential programmers they are mentally mutilated beyond hope of regeneration.”

Oh no, you are mentally mutilating me !

BTW, later BASIC dropped line numbers…
I wonder if ABAP has line numbers though, it wouldn’t surprise me
