Clarifying Google Plus API Quotas
google-plus, quotas
Solution
The methods that require authorization of the `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.login` scope fall into the "Google+ API (Sign-In)" quota. All other Google+ methods fall under the "Google+ API" quota.
"Google+ API ("Sign-In") quota covers these methods:
- people.list
- people.get
- moments.insert
- moments.remove
- moments.list
Google+ API quota: - All other methods

Problem
The Google API Console distinguishes between `Google+ API` and `Google+ API (Sign-in)`. What's the precise distinction here, i.e., what specific calls does the latter refer to? (The sign-in quota is showing up as many per second per user, which would seem excessive if it really is just a single user signing in. I guess it's an arbitrary value.)
