  I would call your attention to the several places it was demonstrated for use by libbitcoin team members -without- a warning, such as in their contributed examples in Mastering Bitcoin. We cover a few of such examples in the writeup. Also note that the tool bothers to refuse to use a flag to specify 32 bit seeds, due to their known risks, but then proceeds to give you only 32 bits of entropy anyway even if you ask for 256.

  No, he's not. Why have it? This isn't a general purpose programming language, a pile of ore from which you might conceivably construct a footgun. It's a toolkit specifically designed for financial applications with a "leak your financial details" tool built in. Sure, it's AGPL, they're not literally liable, but it's not great.
