Hmm ... my first reaction to that was "no, it should be \sp for
'parameter'". But with the neighboring \sf for 'function', it'd
be easy to think that maybe 'p' means 'procedure'.
I do agree that \show might be a bad choice, the reason being that
the adjacent \set command is for psql variables not GUCs; if we
had a \show I'd sort of expect it to be a variant spelling of
"\echo :variable".
"\sc" isn't awful perhaps.
Ah, naming ... the hardest problem in computer science.
