I'm glad it is helpful! Why not just calling them LBSTs as the papers do? Catchier than LWBT I think... (gotta think of the marketing side too) :-p
Thanks for the extra pointers!

Haha true, that's a good point. There's also WAVL and RAVL for weak AVL and relaxed AVL, but no equivalent acronyms for the red-black variants. RRB is the same as Relaxed Radix-Balanced! In my notes I found it easier to avoid acronyms, and then "logarithmic binary search tree" became ambiguous because "aren't they all logarithmic (in height and complexity)?" I found that grouping them as part of the weight-balanced class of trees is the most intuitive, and I wish the original paper did the same, but that's okay.
What I'll do for now is mention specifically that the literature refer to them as LBSTs, and I'll add an index to each tree in the repository to make them easier to navigate. Thanks again.
