It's pretty obvious, right? What Bernstein is saying here can (and probably is) a load of horseshit, and it's still a terrible idea to trust NIST. Seems like a simple argument.

Uh, would you take your simple argument and give me even a single sentence pointing out proof or clear indication it's horseshit. So far I only saw you arguing over words mostly

I'm comfortable that, in the zillion words I've self-indulgently written on this thread, I've established both my bona fides and where I'm coming from with respect to the issues at play here, so in the interests of not repeating myself, I'm not going to repeat myself.

You mean you're not going to engage in argument of substance because you're just that much of an expert. Oh. I'm not dubious at all.
