It also stands for Great Tanzanian Flying Orangutans and thousands of other things (in the sense that it forms an initialism of those words), but the standard definitely uses General Termination of Future Operations.

That may be so, but I have a very hard time believing that GTFO was not chosen because of its more established meaning.
