How would you describe this terminal: pointed teardrop, curled, notched, hook? It has the overall shape of a ball terminal, but is carved into a point in one quadrant.

That actually has a name: foxtail terminal.
BTW although that term is not mentioned here
https://typographica.org/typeface-reviews/ff-pitu/
it's a great example of that style. (BTW to be fair it must
be said that Kim Kardashian has been exhibiting much
more class since the writing of that review.)6 -
Thank you Hrant... was wondering if there was an official name but couldn't find it.0
