I couldn't help smile about the 'government controlled PKI' part, as I
do have a slide in my decks titled 'why DNSSEC is not a PKI' I don't
have one about the government part though.

(I know that what is or isn't a PKI can be debatable, but it made me
smile nevertheless)

My main critique would be that, yes, many times it's true that if X is
'done properly', then Y is not necessary. Well, we've learnt over the
years that security is better done in layers, you might not have control
over 'doing X properly' at all, or there might not be enough indications
that X has been subverted if Y is not also secured.

I'm not going into the 'government controlled' part :-)
