computer authorizations

Under my Apple TV app and my Music app, I have "Account > Authorizations > Authorize this Computer" and I also have "Deauthorize this Computer".


Why do I have the option to Authorize this Computer if my computer is Authorized already?

I think I only should have the option to Deauthorize this Computer.


Thanks.

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 10.15

So that it can be authorized with a different Apple ID if necessary. Authorizing it with more than five may cause it to refuse to sync your entire library with an iPod or iOS device.
