How to understand the module authority? I see the struct_name is hardcode Witness, so is it a programming pattern?

Yeah exactly! My intention is that every module should be able to assert their ownership in this way. For example you could do something like:

public fun do_something<T: drop>(witness: T, object: &Object) {
   assert!(struct_tag::module_authority<Object> == struct_tag::get<T>, ENO_MODULE_AUTHORITY);
...

This is stating that, in order for this function to continue, we need a witness, and that Witness must be the module-authority witness produced by the same module that produced the Object.

This way we can guarantee that this function-call originated from the same module that defined Object in the first place. So even if you obtain a reference to &Object, you won't be able to use it without the defining-module's permission (from a Witness).

let StructTag {
address_,
module_name,
struct_name: _,
generics: _
} = get<T>();

StructTag {
address_,
module_name,
struct_name: ascii::string(b"Witness"),
generics: vector[]
}
}
