Which is what's made it so secure.  It obeys Grigg's Law, "there is only one
mode and that is secure".  There aren't infinite extensions and add-ons and
exceptions and knobs and levers and accompanying near-infinite attack surface
and corner cases and kludges and vulnerabilities, there's just one mode and
that's secure.  One person, working by themselves, has come up with a secure-
A-to-B mechanism that's better than anything the IETF has ever produced.
