I henceforth decree that the term "auth" is officially retired. In its place, you may either use "authn" (authentication) or "authz" (authorization). You confuse these terms at your peril.

The peril doesn't come from me. The peril comes when Alice says "this is auth'ed" meaning 'authenticated' and Bob hears 'authorized' and allows literally everyone in the system access.
