[Wang, Yipeng] 
A bit more explanation would be helpful for future understanding of the code:
"Signature comparison is done ... performance.
Although this could accidentally cause the reader to read an old signature 
while the key_idx
is updated to a new key's,  any false positive will be .... of the key."

Otherwise:
