Yep, and as in all warfare its about being PRACTICAL all the way, using whatever tools one might know how to handle in the fight :-)

Sometimes I feel like not sharing anything about stuff like this since it always pulls in the theorists with their "perfect" level of doing things, not realizing that this invites SPOFs

In a real fight you have to expect some real damage, keeping that on an acceptable level so that you are in for the long haul is what is necessary to survive & WIN in the end :-)

And that is why I have spread my #Bitcoin across platforms and devices, I can accept a loss of maybe 5% worst case but NOT losing most due to thinking anything is perfect...

That is part of the motivation for getting into FreeBSD too, Apple is proooobably captured already and Linux has Linus himself as a SPOF
