Except nobody ever refers to it as "H2G2".

Using acronyms already adds some degree of ambiguity; shortening a commonly used acronym makes it basically unrecognizable, even when used within the proper context.

H2G2 is a pretty common acronym. In fact I've only heard it referred to as H2G2 or Hitchhiker's Guide.
On its wikipedia page its referred throughout as H2G2.
