R is a consonant (indicating “a”) but also if you say the word R it starts with a vowel (indicating “an”)

both look wrong :(

    I read somewhere a long time ago that just because a term is in the form of an acronym, that doesn’t change what comes before it.

    I was taught this as well, but unfortunately I think you and I were misled.
    Still, they both sound “icky” to me, ha.
