This is not a typo, “iff” is mathematical slang for “if and only if”.

Of course, we could still replace it by “if and only if” (I don’t know how widespread “iff” is outside of math, some users might not know it).

Probably worth to spell it out.

Well, you have one data point right here, I thought it was a typo when I saw it. Then again, I'm a physicist 😉

iff is pretty standard I thought, but no harm in spelling it out.
