In polite terms it can also mean “the featured article”. And IMO it makes more sense to read it that way in a top-level comment.

Whereas reading it as the f’ing article makes more sense when the word “TFA” is used in a response to another comment like “well, you say that but TFA said such and such”.

Agreed. I've also seen "The Fine Article"

    This is the old school “polite” version, as in, “read the fine manual”
