You are somewhat jumping your conclusions here. Taking further advice
from <sys/syslog.h> on GNU/Linux or BSD will clarify the matter:
{ "security", LOG_AUTH } /* DEPRECATED */
but
{ "auth", LOG_AUTH }
{ "authpriv", LOG_AUTHPRIV }
are still recommended. Observe the nomen "security", which is
better avoided since a rather long time.
It is always wonderful to have receptive audience when discussion
interesting notions and knowledge.
Best regards,
Mats
