Authenticity
Acting in accordance with what one has actually accepted rather than what one ought to.
What it commits you to
Heidegger's authenticity is owning one's possibilities rather than letting public expectation choose for one, and Sartre recasts it as admitting that one's choices are one's own. It is the sharpest philosophical criticism of any system optimised to satisfy a signal: the satisfaction is real and it is not thereby anyone's. The gap it names is not a bug in the current systems.
Which realms lean on this
Philosophy carries the arguments the other four kinds are downstream of — what an agent is, what a person owes, what a rule is for.
