But it matches only NIST recommendations, there are other sources that
claim that 1024 bit asymmetric is less than 80 bit symmetric. Therefore
instead of "For F21 it should provide 80-bit security" for default it
should say something like "For F21 it should provide 72-bit security" or
whatever is correct.
