Just to clarify this further, I now realize this may be confusing
to some, especially for non-1st language speakers.

discretion has various meanings:
one of which is "the quality or state of being discreet"

it can also mean:
latitude/ability to make responsible decisions, power of free
decision.
	-  this is what i meant.
