"perfect" is a dangerous word. Whether it's someone saying a "perfect" product or "perfect" society or "perfect" anything, I tend to run in the opposite direction. What can I say, I'm a digital Burkean..

Basically, it is mathematically impossible for any encryption scheme to ever provide better data secrecy than the OTP, so I think calling it "perfectly secret" is perfectly alright :)
