Actually,

The original definition of OOO was:

Over Officious Oaf

Therefore there is more credence in the definition if official is replaced. Actually the term is is just like saying "surrounded on all sides". (Credit: Edwin Newman in Strictly Speaking).

Maybe we could figger out how to place odiferious in the definition.

Officious is not a negative term when used alone.
