Reading this article reminded me of the following:

That is a fantastic paper! But I still wonder at the practical utility of
their chosen use cases. I can kinda grok the utility of reduced attack
complexity because you can simply produce trojans en masse and hope they
percolate into the critical sub-systems you will need/want. But I'm too
ignorant to understand the utility of the side-channel use case. How would the
black hat get the chip into the right place? The same way? By flooding the
target with chips that all contain the hidden side channel?
