Carl,
Are you serious?
If that's true, it's gotta be one of the biggest bureaucratic moves in history. While it might have been a mistake to start with, recalling them only makes it worse, IMO. (I'd be curious to know what other three-letter combos aren't allowed - I can think of lots of ~vulgar ones  )
Anyway, can you imagine driving down the road and getting pulled over because you've failed to return your recalled plates? "Sir, I stopped you 'cause your license plate says 'WTF' on it." I'm sure my reply would be, "WTF?"
Doug
