You attack the thought by your objection with his wording but that is pretty much compatible with his point
Words are built in systems and making original points requires either new words or a temporary best fit redefinition
It does not matter whether authority can be classified within one word but two different ideas by the linguistic taste you have personally developed
The difference was stated without confusion either way
