Werner, can you just stop twisting words? The term you used is "hack
the system" - hacking systems doesn't have the positive connotations
as hacking software for example, especially not when you "use bugs" to
achieve that, sorry, but real hackers don't use bugs to hack systems.

If anybody used the word hacking with negative conotations, it's you.

No, Werner, you are simply dishonest in your communication, so much is
clear now. In this whole thread you were misrepresenting facts, quoting
out of context, and making false statements.

The big problem is that apart from that, you didn't do anything else -
there was no attempt to answer questions, explain your sometimes insulting
claims, or reconcile your position with the documented and published
position of crypto experts.

I seriously question your motives now.

I also agree to end this exchange here, it doesn't lead anywhere when one
party is obviously not interested in a technical discussion, but only in
ridiculing the problem and twisting words.

My hope at this point is simply that debian works around this.
