Hi Peter, To your question about sno_rx_16ab I suspect that the CUI is new since 2016, or if it existed in UMLS back then, it was not associated with a term in snomed or rxnorm at that time.
To those solutions, if you are able to use the trunk I know Sean said there was a suppression text feature, otherwise in the past I have removed the lines from the .script file I definitely think the acronym case sensitive feature would be great.
