Excellent point; I wish I'd thought to mention that. I spent a few years as a CISO, and honestly, I know that I really want anything to do with the security industry again, outside of making sure that systems and apps are as secure as I can make them. Why? Because security is a lot harder than most people recognize. Blowfish is an excellent symmetric encryption algorithm, but, as you say, it would be easy enough to implement it badly and end up with insecure, trusted code.
