I don't think I'll write for the other primitives, I don't know them well enough to comment on them properly.
I won't add other primitives to Monocypher, that would defeat the purpose of a "one true cipher suite". One stream cipher, one authenticator, one hash, one password key derivation, one key exchange, one signature. That is enough.
When some of those primitives becomes obsolete, I'll consider writing a new, incompatible version of Monocypher. For instance, we can switch to curve448 if curve25519 isn't secure enough. I think at least a decade will pass before we come to that, though.
