A good question is never answered. It is not a bolt to be tightened into place but a seed to be planted and to bear more seed toward the hope of greening the landscape of the idea. John Ciardi

I'm not sure that I'd pronouce your main or alternative versions differently.
I pronounce lib to rhyme with baby's bib or telling a fib.
and bin to rhyme with tin can or gordon's gin.

FATS are still very much in use. particularly on smaller hard disks, and they are supposed to be faster(I think it uses linked lists for data access as opposed to NTFS which is supposed to use B-Trees. but of course with todays computing power it doesn't matter much)
