 > Not only do we use the word in WordPress' code base but also in output
 messages.

 Replying to [comment:6 johnbillion]:
 > Does WordPress still expose the word "nonce" to end-users? I thought
 we'd improved most of those error messages. If there are still some, we
 should improve those regardless.

 I've checked the core for any instances of the word in user-facing
 messages, and the three strings in [attachment:"50382.diff"] are the only
 ones I've found. Let's improve them in 5.8.

 Looks like this was also previously considered in comment:1:ticket:43617.

 If any plugin or theme uses the word in other user-facing messages, it
 would be up to their authors to fix that.
