Sure, but that was really just a footnote to the main point, I was picking two
well-known and widely-deployed case studies of all-the-flexibility-all-the-
time design (IPsec) vs. Grigg's-Law design (WireGuard) to provide a
counterexample to the original claim that flexibility is automatically good.
Like rubber screwdrivers and EVA foam crash barriers, you're giving up a fair
bit of utility, and in this case security, in exchange for that flexibility.
