Actually the "use it freely" reference there describes iff as a borderline case of w.l.o.g., s.t., etc. and suggests that iff be explicitly defined when used in non-mathematical writing.
I avoid it even in mathematical articles myself on the grounds that it's poor erasure coding and easy to miss-read. There is a tangible advantage in writing faster on a blackboard that disappears in print.
