Are we all talking about the same thing Tomberry? As I have understood it the tern "naked short" is not meaning one shorts an equity without having the cash to cover it, but rather means one has sold shares that one did not have and did not borrow/margin.
The first does not inflate the O/S but the last one does effectively increase the float/outstanding shares.
