You referred to 'QR + CV + HTTPS system'. Is there more to the CV component than taking a photo?

Yes, there's more to it than just reading the QR code. As mentioned above, I don't think it's a very defensible tech differentiator right now (lots of better-funded cybersecurity companies out there), but in summary, the phone sees stuff on the screen other than the QR code.
