Instead of Acedia, shouldn't he have the authority of "Tristitia"?

Tristitia was one of the old sins along with vainglory, in chapter 104 Subaru notes that since Hector's authority exists, Vainglory wouldn't be a weird thing one to exist as well in that world. The problem, is that if his is named Acedia it doesn't make sense, since Acedia is literally the latin name for sloth. The pope who made the current list for sins, mixed Tristitia into Acedia, aka sloth. Vainglory into Superbia, which would be Pride, and added envy into it.

The old list had 8 sins, and after the Pople made a revision it has 7, with 2 of then mixed into already exsting ones. So the most correct name for his authority is  Tristitia, not Acedia. Tristitia also happens to be referred to as despair/sorrow/depression/melancholy, which fits with how Hector acts in chapter 103 on Lewes's flashback.
