I want to giggle too, can you explain?

It's a play on the idiom to "cross your t's and dot your i's", which means to make sure to check and double check your work for any errors/omissions/etc.

So kind of two jokes for the price of one: the play on the idiom, and that they didn't do it because of the clit joke that made it into the final draft ๐Ÿคฃ

In addition, the i with its dot are also the X of a treasure map, for those that need help finding it.

I just assumed it was for the visual association

Brilliant! Thanks for the explanation.
