Cryptography: <reference> is incorrect because <logic> and should therefore be <statement>. This allows a ciphertext produced by X to be breakable in 2²¹ operations when 2¹¹ messages are known to the attacker. Paranoia: NSA bribes the independent reviewers and is backdooring the whole thing because everyone knows the military and intelligence services are two decades ahead of public research and we just don't know what the algorithm flaw is yet, but I'm telling you, they're keeping something behind! I am not saying djb (or anyone) does the latter, example is given exaggerated for illustrative purposes only. The cryptographer's example is also exaggerated, as it does matter how algorithms are chosen and there's a measure of subjectivity involved. Still, I would not say that paranoia is the job of a cryptographer.
