FTI "If you give HarfBuzz a font and a string containing a sequence of Unicode codepoints, HarfBuzz selects and positions the corresponding glyphs from the font, applying all of the necessary layout rules and font features. HarfBuzz then returns the string to you in the form that is correctly arranged for the language and writing system."

Is "FTI" a thing or did you mean "FYI"?

Perhaps "For The/Those Interested"?

For Their Information. Like FYI, but presumably dan-robertson already knows! It's for the benefit of everyone else.
