You personally made sure it wouldn't be an externality either. I can count on you to make me pay for any mistake I make (only one of any consequence so far, and it was over 2 years ago: https://monocypher.org/quality-assurance/disclosures https://monocypher.org/quality-assurance/disclosures).
I know exactly how tough it is to own up to my mistakes.

(Something I knew from the outset: when you deal with crypto, you don't do it alone. You seek advice and feedback.) No one at the time warned me this conversion was dangerous. Yet another hint that we don't have enough cryptographic engineers.
