Looking at downvotes on the parent post. I am bothered by the fact that participants of similar security discussion so easily downvote or lash out against any questions or ideas that diverge from their favorite mainstream. Seems like a common trend even outside of HN.

It's a perfectly valid post. No one says "use this, this is awesome and secure". If you think the idea is bad, then answer with an explanation. The -1 is simply not useful here. (Neither are one-liners that boil down to -1.)
