However unrealistic it is, I still wish that open source Projects would agree on what to call things.

The /etc/sudoers NOPASSWD and sshd without-password sound like the same thing, but are far from that.

I feel like they could have named it better.

Sudoers NOPASSWD means you don't have to type the password for that feature. Sshd without-password means passwords are disabled. Not the same thing.
