Your comment put me on a side quest to research the differences between i.e., e.g., viz. and sc. and I have to admit that I’m still not 100% sure

Don’t think I’ve ever heard of scilicet. <https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=viz.,sc.&year_...> definitely suggests viz. to have been massively more popular than sc.
Concordantly, vis a vis, ergo..
i.e. == aka == in other words
e.g. == f.e., for example
"e.g." == exempli gratia == to give an example
"i.e." == id es == that is
But both i.e. and e.g. might be more easily understood by non-native speakers of English (IMHO ;-)
