Hi Tiru,

What I have heard from many participants is the desire for a security 
property that this hybrid draft claims to satisfy which post-handshake 
alone cannot satisfy. I could not find such a property in -06.

I've seen the diff from -04 which is the last version I have previously 
formally analyzed. Only my comment on "Post-handshake server 
authentication" was addressed. All my other comments [0] are 
unaddressed, including CVE-2026-33697 still being applicable here.

Best,

-Usama
