Since it isn't ABNF, perhaps BBNF?

Going back to RFC 2205,

      These rules are specified using Backus-Naur Form (BNF)

What do you think of BNFO, for "Backus-Naur Form with Options"?

or BNFB, for "Backus-Naur Form with Brackets"?

Either one would work for me and would be much more descriptive
of what is going on than "Reduced".
