I pushed a commit to the Fetch PR to suggest this name for clarity:

Suggested change
|blobUrlEntry| and an [=environment settings object=], "`navigation`", or "`top-level-self-fetch`"
|blobUrlEntry| and an [=environment settings object=], "`top-level-navigation`", or "`top-level-self-fetch`"

|environment|, perform the following steps. They return an [=blob URL entry/object=].

1. Let |isAuthorized| be true.
1. If |environment| is not the string "`navigation`", then set |isAuthorized| to the result of [=checking for same-partition blob URL usage=] with |blobUrlEntry| and |environment|.
1. If |environment| is an [=environment settings object=], then set |isAuthorized| to the result of
[=checking for same-partition blob URL usage=] with |blobUrlEntry| and |environment|.
1. If |isAuthorized| is false, then return failure.
1. Return |blobUrlEntry|'s [=blob URL entry/object=].
