   That reminded me of how things can get ambiguous when using this form of    shorthand. Obviously, TRE stands for "thread right end" [1] and I guess    TOE is used because TLE (for "thread left end") could be mixed-up with    "thread large end". Especially if you have both left and right-hand    threads to deal with.

   [1] Which also could be inversely confused with "thread wrong end", I    suppose.
