Haha yeah this is a good insight. "Resource Acquisition Is Initialization" actually has nothing to do with resource acquisition or initialization in most peoples' minds, instead people (including me) tend to think of it as "Resource Release Is Implicit Object Lifetime Termination". RRIIOLT doesn't really have the same ring to it though xD
