But the researchers were told to get to the heart of the matter.

They don't want to give the hackers clues so they can't counter. If they tell you they'd have to kill you.

Isn't that a bit like me saying "my wife and Mrs. Wagon ..."?

There are use cases you're not covering. Last month I needed a photo of my sister-in-law's ID card to prove that I'd correctly transcribed her address (bureaucrats don't always understand that other countries do things like addresses differently) when applying for a document to make it easier for her to visit.

Just what we need... a way to make python even slower.

I once worked with a guy who wrote an entire smallish HTML reporting and graphing application via one big single Oracle SQL statement. I'd hate to do maintenance on it, but it got the immediate job done.
