Nico, I assure you that for this issue “coercion” is not the case for many 
users, including myself. Purely understanding of science, and technical 
requirements (beyond the pure theoretical “crypto papers”).

There are two ways to design a system. One is to make it so simple there are 
obviously no deficiencies.
The other is to make it so complex there are no obvious deficiencies.

The issue, I think, is that some of "the other side" that want to
"exercise other options" may do so under coercion, but then, us not
publishing the RFC does not alter that they will continue to so be.
