...with this one, I agree.

Hm. It hasn't really been allowed yet, either. To illustrate what I mean:
LOG: connection received: host=[local]
LOG: connection allowed: user="jacob" method=trust
(/home/jacob/src/data/pg16/pg_hba.conf:117)
LOG: connection authorized: user=jacob database=postgres
application_name=psql
Maybe "unauthenticated connection:"? "connection without
authentication:"? "connection skipped authentication:"?
--Jacob
