This rant is pretty silly. Nick Lamb's took the time to refute it on that thread; you should acknowledge that before continuing to cite your thread as if nobody had corrected you.

Who's Nick Lamb?
Anyway, the thead is very short, so if there were any corrections there, people can read them and make their own mind.

Sure, people should just read that whole thread. It doesn't sound like Magic Wormhole's authentication really clicked for you in the original rant.

Also why no attempt at NAT traversal; instead relaying traffic through a transit server.
It's almost as if the project's purpose is not so much to create superior file transfer but more just to showcase a use of SPAKE2.
