"L2$, L3$, I$, D$". Well, OK.

It's just shorthand for "level 2 cache", "level 3 cache", "instruction cache" and "data cache".

Yes, obviously. It's just the first time I've seen a CPU designer/manufacturer use such relaxed "informality" in a spec sheet.

I follow RISC-V and see it all the time.

CPU manufacturers also aren't using Unicode, using the letter u instead of µ (micro), and the letter A instead of Å (the unit Ångström).
