There is such a thing as over-engineering, and increasing a fingerprint bit length upwards of 160 bits "just because we can" seems to go in that direction. 160 bits is all the hashes ever calculated by the entire bitcoin network bitcoin network times all the hashes ever calculated by the entire bitcoin network. Someone said "length is important", I wanted to bring that point back into discussion. I would really prefer not to have every user of FuturePGP read 25 rather than 20 characters to people just because we thought "why not" on this list. The last thing openpgp needs is stronger technical security assertions at the cost of usability. - V
