Hopefully, if relevancy is the metric, it shouldn't be too hard to
sell the concept of C based command-line tools.

There are only a handful of people working on this technology.  Within
that group I would reason, with a high degree of probability, that we
all prefer working with command-line tools and we are all universally
working with C based toolchains.

We did a proof of concept validation for a partner on TPM2 Broadwell
and Skylake based systems that we took as far as getting Linux to do a
trusted boot.  We put that work on the shelf without doing any
significant policy work, in part, because we didn't have the cycles to
deal with implications of the Python based tools.

We had done a lot of partner work on TPM1/TBOOT based embedded systems
and all of our scripting and workflow were command-line and C tool
based.

Hopefully another useful data point.

Best wishes for a productive week.
