Thanks for the MDN updates! This will make storage access a bit less confusing I hope.
Your patch changes a couple of mentions of storage to "cookies". While I don't think that's strictly required (the spec still talks about storage and cookies being the only "storage" affected by the storage access api), but it might help developers understand better that we only mean cookies.
I can't officially r+ or r- on this repo so just leaving some comments.

Thanks for the great work! I think we can update the PR to request review now.
I'm still not super happy that now there is a bit of a disconnect between the spec talking about storage (cookies being the only storage affected) and the MDN article talking about cookies. Maybe we can discuss this with @bvandersloot-mozilla when he's back.
Yes, let's do so, the opinion from @bvandersloot-mozilla will be valuable! |

Thank you. It's looking good, @HannahPeuckmann, just a few nits.
Also marking my approval here.

Description
Updating the outdated documents that deal with Storage Access API/ storage access grants. Storage is always partitioned and storage access grants are limited to access to cookies now.
Motivation
The documentation about the Storage Access API and automatic storage access grants are outdated since the implementation changed in Fx109. The outdated documentation led to confusion because developers expected to see the old behavior.
