DAMAGE. You couldn't even say the word. The whole point of the document is to expand upon the implications of what operational practices are impacted in an encrypted world. That doesn't mean people should stop encrypting, but it does mean that we should understand what is breaking. To do otherwise is to stick our heads in the sand. Let's not do that.

Better to focus on whether the impact of encryption has indeed been well documented. Eliot ps: but I agree with your point about statistics.
