Russian time zones never abbreviated in civil live, so don't even try to search for them. MSK/MSD abbreviation was born in computers world initially.
I would be interested to know, what labels are used in Russia for its time zones? I know Moscow+0 is Moscow time, but what is the name in common use for Moscow+1, Moscow+2, all the way up to Moscow+10. Thank you.
I don't understand why you insist on some meaning of timezone abbreviation, lets look at them as at abstract ascii labels. Most of timezone abbreviations already are cryptic enough for unexperienced user. Only one requirement will be needed: ascii label must be unique. If timezone abbreviation comes to you from native background, please don't change it.
I completely agree.
