The author states Wikipedia removed the term in 2013 because it's not notable. I'll join others here by saying I haven't heard of it as well and it would seem "tracer bullet" did just fine in The Pragmatic Programmer published much earlier. The author doesn't state who came up with the term "steel thread" and I'm suspecting it was the author. |

That's a weird type of suspicion. A simple search yields some prior usage of this term:
