I checked the glossary and this is what it says:
"Iff" means "if and only if". This terminology comes from
mathematics. Try to avoid using this term in documentation, since
many are unfamiliar with it and mistake it for a typo.
So yes, I mistook it for a typo:) Another thing is that the Glossary
is located inside the "Emacs" info node, but I reported the bug
against the Autotype info node.
