None of these are good reasons to build SHA-3 into a design today, which is the point of the post. He's not criticizing SHA-3's design; pretty much everyone thinks it's interesting and valuable. The point is that the resulting standard doesn't have a lot of immediate practical benefit for real systems.

I don't think that's true. TuppleHash is THE solution for fingerprints. SHAKE is useful for really a lot of different purposes. Imo self made protocols could really benefit from STROBE today as well.

And all the SHA-3-derived functions in SP 800-185. For instance, ParallelHash is super fast and a NIST standard.
