The risk mitigation taken relies on the common sense (I know, in short supply 
now), and adherence to the standards. I.e., if it says “use NIST-blessed DRBG”, 
the implementation SHALL use it.


Otherwise, if you assume that part of the standard will be ignored — why would 
other parts of that standard or your RFC be followed correctly?

It merely requires the implementation to abide by the letter of the standards 
it claims to implement. Not a rocket science/

Thank you (and others who’d hopefully follow your example) kindly!
