thank you giancarlo! sorry i hadn't known to look for inline
responses when i read your first email, which i read on my phone.
ok, so i had some trouble formally expressing an attack scenario, but
i'm glad you agree that crypto is important and underused even for
some non-casual users. actually

thanks for the reply, hugo! good points. let me try to address them:
