I see evidence of this unreliability every day, so I must respectfully disagree.

The reality is that everybody uses it.
The reality is that they don't really have a choice, now, do they?

I think it's actually correct, and backs up Danny's point: it is very useful to be able to use a system that is: deployed, understood, operationally viable, etc. The risk of designing from scratch is best described by the lead time many other architectural changes have/are facing in being deployed. I think the bottom line is that this infrastructure will allow a security solution to reach deployment _much_ sooner than a green-field design. Eric
