Should capitalize at least the non-text one ?  And maybe the text one for
consistency ?

+               ExplainPropertyInteger("WAL fpw", NULL,                                                                                                                                              

And add the acronym to the docs:

$ git grep 'full page' '*/explain.sgml'
doc/src/sgml/ref/explain.sgml:      number of records, number of full page writes and amount of WAL bytes

"..full page writes (FPW).."

Should we also change vacuumlazy.c for consistency ?

+                                                        _("WAL usage: %ld records, %ld full page writes, "
+                                                          UINT64_FORMAT " bytes"),
