Hi Rich,

We're still talking past each other.  I'm aware that we can't
pre-load hardware acceleration for new algorithms yet to
be defined.  But the lack of that hardware acceleration is
going to be a practical deterrent to crypto agility in these
long-lived automotive ECUs in future years.

Cheers,
- Ira
