Evil Twin is just a variant of man-in-the-middle, right?  An "active",
rather than "passive" MITM.

Surely WPA is secure against MITM, including active MITM.

All one needs to prevent MITM is a competent protocol and at least one
end authenticated.  Your strong-enough password provides such
authentication.

(WPS does or did have a weakness if I remember correctly.  My brute
force solution has been to disable WPS.  There may have been fixes.)

Ohh.  KRACK.  WPA2 isn't competent.  I forgot.
