In the safecurves site it is made a condition for a safe Montgomery curve that A^2-4 should be a non-square. See https://safecurves.cr.yp.to/complete.html In Appendix A of RFC7748 a script is provided for generating suitable Montgomery curves, but the above condition is not specified. See https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7748#appendix-A Which suggests that it is in fact safe to implement RFC7748 on a Montgomery curve which does not meet all of the safecurves criteria. Am I right?
