Sorry, no. For just removing two lines of code, this report should suffice.
The net-http project currently has 16 open pull requests and 30 open issues;
the oldest one waits for almost 4 years to be answered. I have better things
to do than being ignored by those people.

Besides that, I do not want to be involved in projects that show up such
ridiculous flaws.

* Author: BertramScharpf (Bertram Scharpf)

* ruby -v: ruby 3.3.6 (2024-11-05 revision 75015d4c1f) [amd64-freebsd14]
* Backport: 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN, 3.4: UNKNOWN

```console
$ grep -rnH HTTPAuthenticationError /usr/local/lib/ruby
/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/3.3/rubygems/vendor/net-http/lib/net/http.rb:2455:      raise HTTPAuthenticationError.new('HTTP authentication failed', err)
/usr/local/lib/ruby/3.3/net/http.rb:2455:      raise HTTPAuthenticationError.new('HTTP authentication failed', err)
/usr/local/lib/ruby/3.3/rubygems/vendor/net-http/lib/net/http.rb:2455:      raise HTTPAuthenticationError.new('HTTP authentication failed', err)

$ ruby -r net/http -e 'HTTPAuthenticationError'
-e:1:in `<main>': uninitialized constant HTTPAuthenticationError (NameError)

HTTPAuthenticationError
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
```

The `raise` statement will just transform a meaningful error into a `NameError`.
