to address your question i'll say this, crypto is only interesting to me in securing my own work and because my interests are in number theory that, due to rsa popularity, would incidentally affect crypto
i lack an intimate familiarity with the optimisation requirements of rolling production crypto, meaning i can comfortably ignore any message size restraints for my personal uses
instead of implying i know how crypto should be enacted.. with my current knowledge and interest i would be wholly unable to deduce as you did in your article.. i was simply stating that i am interested in factoring large integers and i wonder why anyone thinks open problems in number theory are a sound means of crypto
superb write up by the way
