I'd like to push back on THIS a bit.

While I agree that you don't ALWAYS need to encrypt everything, I would
argue that in 2023 you should to encrypt everything 99% of the time, and
the 1% you don't you should think about very carefully.  And having the
samples encrypt stuff would be helpful as examples (and to take later
further point, the breakdown between sample/simple always confuses me as
well).
