i suspect it’s actually that TC looks too much like TO (especially written by hand) and it was changed to a k to make it easier for typists and typesetters to quickly identify. that or the circumnavigation one.

it’s journalism speak for “to come” so every article about TK (the school one) looks like it went to print with TKs (the reporting one) left unfilled.
