You’re right, I didn’t. Thank you for saying so with much more clarity than I probably would have.



> This happened so quickly

This was your claim. What is the justification for the claim? The comment seemed to imply that it was the OCSP problem. Otherwise, no other explanation was offered by the comment.


It happened quickly on the heels of the public release. The problem I cited was about how embarrassing a half assed solution could be, not about prompting a different response.

Good engineers who boneheadedly cut corners are already tracking their omissions and FIXMEs. The fact that they shipped and quickly turned around a better solution reads to me like engineers doing their dang job.

Edit: I just realized who I responded to and even if we don’t see it the same way I just want to say I appreciate your work and even your particular cynicism.
