I don't think they're catchy either. And it's too tempting for posers to omit the prefixes - trying to pass these off on their c.v. as actual degrees. I think micro, nano and pico refer to the brain capacity of those who dreamt them up.
I hope these midget-credentials get smaller and smaller until poof! They disappear completely. Courses are courses. Certs are certs. Degrees are degrees. Call 'em what they are.
