Nobody is even rhetorically asking you to trust NIST.

If you run a server using TLS, and that server select Kyber, does the security of the connection depend on Kyber being sound? If I need to trust the security of the connection. I have to trust the server, because the server trusts Kyber, that means I have to trust Kyber, because I have to trust the server.

> you don't have to trust the server

oh, sorry I should have realized this wasn't a conversation anymore

I don't even know who you're replying to anymore; who are you quoting? You get that you and I are the only people reading this, right? You're not going to convince me; you already opened this conversation up by acknowledging you're totally unfamiliar with the field you're commenting on.
Nah, that's on me: I was irked by the feeling that you weren't trying to talk in good faith. I still don't think you're trying to but at least now I'm less annoyed, and can apologize for trying to troll you in my last msg.

Good luck buddy :)
