The NSAKEY backdoor claim should be trivial to prove with a debugger, until someone does so I think we can safely dismiss it as a lie.

It’s been two decades, and nobody has been able to explain how it would’ve been used.

I beg to differ. This stuff is called reverse engineering and it's all but trivial.
The debugging symbols and most of the source is out there, this really isn’t a particularly difficult task.

If you can’t do this, then you certainly aren’t qualified to claim that such a backdoor exists.
