Here's why:
* No official definition: There is no recognized publishing or literary term called "tea format."
* Potential misinterpretation: It might be a playful way to refer to a short, informal book or a lighthearted, gossipy read.
* Context matters: The meaning could be entirely different depending on the context in which you encountered the term.
To understand the meaning, you need more information:
* Where did you see "tea format"? (Example: Online forum, book review, etc.)
* What was the context? (Was it being used seriously or in a humorous way?)
