Invalid-curve attacks completely break the simplest DH implementations in Montgomery coordinates _and_ in Edwards coordinates. Rather than blaming the implementor, we eliminate these security failures by * adding twist security, for both Montgomery and Edwards, and * switching to single-coordinate ladders. This is the primary motivation for twist security (and a closer look, as I've explained in detail, shows a twist-security criterion that's met by Curve25519 and not by PinkBikeShed). This has nothing to do with the superficial differences between the Montgomery x and the Edwards y, both of which support ladders. If you disagree, please explain why you're requiring _any_ type of twist security for Edwards curves. Why aren't you saying something like "The larger d forced by 'twist security' is a violation of rigidity" and objecting to the whole concept of twist security for Edwards curves? ---Dan
