Sort-of on the topic of terminology, how should “RAAP” be pronounced when spoken aloud? (If the term catches on, some pronunciation will be adopted.)
“Rap” sounds wrong because it fails to acknowledge the second A. Trading the short A for a long A yields “rape”, which probably isn’t a connotation you want. You could maybe push “rawp” (with “aw” as in “hawk”).
If you don’t like any of those, you might want to find another acronym with better phonetics.

My default would be “raahp”, which doesn’t have any of the problems you mentioned.
I’m uncertain what phonemes “raahp” denotes.
Rhymes with carp.
