---No, that's not it at all. NPL is not in dispute. It's well
known that the early name of the language was NPL for New Programing
Language.
He was claiming that PL/I was called "PL/1" before it
was called PL/I. I pointed out that the first editions
of IBM's PL/I manuals called it "PL/I".

Though I do not have them at hand, I recall some early IBM
documents which referred to PL/1 after it changed its name
from NPL.
