I always thought it stood for Reference in the sense of a template or
comparison point, as in "JPEG Reference Library" or that 1kg block of
iridium-platinum used as the references unit of mass.  I usually
visualize an oil painter using his/her thumb as a (size) reference.

I really ought to study the cgame code in more depth.
