Actually the use of QX in the Lensman novels shows the age in which it was written. Morse code operators had a variety of shorthand signals, usually of 2 or 3 characters. QX was in fact used as OK as morse operators were keyed to using Q signals.

I wonder if Babylon Five creator J. Michael Starczynski based the Vorlons on the Arisians and the Shadows on the Eddorians?
I know, I know he may have decided to subvert expectations with both races during Season 4, but my point stands.
