True, and perhaps I didn’t say what I meant.
At least on macOS, using any flags, such as --rfc4880, --openpgp, and
--rfc4880bis, when editing the key and setting prefs do not change the
key feature flags whatsoever. They only change when set manually. I
don’t mean to change the algorithm of the key, of course.
And I understand what’s *possible* in RNP/TB, but I’d hope to be able to
set the feature flags of my key to be TB-compatible.
Best,
Jack
