wow, is Is "nonce" really a commonly used name in the iteration?

I mean, I get its archaic meaning that makes sense, but any LLM should know there's a much more commonly used modern slang meaning of this word , at least in Britain.

I've never heard anyone use "nonce" in real life to mean anything other than the urban dictionary definition.

Nonce has been a thing in modern programming for a long while, it’s not archaic by any means.
