Comment (by arthuredelstein):

 Replying to [comment:4 gk]:

 Just to give what I think is an important anecdote: in my experience,
 *many* people already think the higher settings of the "Security Slider"
 are designed to provide more "privacy protections" such as fingerprinting
 resistance.

 If we want to keep the distinction clear that the slider is not about the
 things in 2.1, I think it will be helpful to use consistent and specific
 terminology, regardless of the context, especially as not everyone is
 going to read the whole document.
