A hardware smartcard is meant to be a closed system, and you can enumerate all 
(or fuzz most) of the possible inputs.

If you have a Nest thermostat, why bother with an alcohol thermometer? Perhaps 
there is a bug with your Nest and it reports in Farenheit instead of Celcius. 
Google can issue an update, and send out an email apologizing profusely. If 
your alcohol thermometer is inaccurate, your homeostasis is surely doomed.
