To be clear, the RSA key thing isn’t really about it being a security issue — that’s a part of it, but the bigger point was that it reflects structural failure/inertia that’s commonplace in distribution packaging.

(I am not a hater of distribution packaging, either. But I typically find comparisons between it and language packaging lacking, because the two have very different trust topologies.)
