The weakness is totally dependent on whether implementers get this right or not. The problem is that you can't tell whether they did since it doesn't show. If they get it right, there is no weakness, if some or any get it wrong, it may significantly reduce the value of this effort. With implicit, implementers can't get it wrong and still produce a valid finished message. I personally think this is a significant advantage. >> actually derived the same value from previous handshake.
