FCFeynmanProjectivize[int, x] checks if the given Feynman parameter integral (without prefactors) depending on x[1], x[2], … is a projective form. If this is not the case, the integral will be projectivized.
Projectivity is a necessary condition for computing the integral with the aid of the Cheng-Wu theorem

Feynman parametrizations derived from propagator representations should be projective in most cases. However, arbitrary Feynman parameter integrals do not necessarily have this property.
