Seems weird that the code examples for TLS connections are in doc for X509 authentication. Most TLS users are merely encrypting their transport, not also using TLS for authentication.

Note - ignore the part about ssl.CERT_OPTIONAL in the certificate verification policy section of PyMongo's docs. That option is meaningless on the client side and I'm going to remove that example from the docs. Servers always present a certificate.

See also the PyMongo example for inspiration, make sure we're covering the same ground for C Driver users:
