Yes, this is the crux for me. Some people have a form of dyslexia
which causes them to just stop when confronted with a sea of numbers,
I imagine this could equally transfer over to alphanumeric characters.
The PGP to the uninitiated merely seems to be junk that takes up
bandwidth.

Thank you for an insightful post.
