I think you have a typo in there, because FTFe doesn't sound like a good acronym for an extraction problem.

Which points out that we also often see FTE, and that doesn't tell us if the problem is a failute to extract, or a failure to eject.

So, perhaps we might consider:

FTFe = Failure to Feed
FTFi = Failure to Fire
FTEx = Failure to Extract
FTEj = Failure to Eject

Or, maybe we should stop being so addicted to acronyms, and just start writing what we mean in real words. (NAH! That's never work!)
