NSA CIA FBI MIL etc sole purpose in life is to break codes and other shit, fuck you up, and prop and secure survival of themselves and Govt and GovCorp and Pols and their preferred outcomes and partners, at all costs. Nowhere in there is any obligation to helping you, in any way, at all. "Police have no duty to protect. -- Supreme Court" All who listen to and follow them and demur things to them are doing nothing but ensuring eventual subjugation and demise. Fodder and slaves, fooled fools indeed. Patently fucktarded it is that you still think you have to run a crypto competition as their bitch in their house, instead of using the anarchic internet to let the algos fall or succeed independently rightly where they may in the ever breaking open court of public cryptanalysis.

Composition not a weakener, instead is odds at survival. Yet various suspects scream against it... who be those shills.

You knew these two are also evil to the core since day one and are nasty spies and TOP-SECRET partners of the TLA's, yet you continue to prop them up instead of abandoning them.
"NIST alone makes the PQC standardization decisions... We operate transparently. We've shown all our work. -- NIST"
Fake News, Disinformation, clearly, to anyone with a clue, and conspiracy theorists often proven right.
"NIST, have a responsibility to be ... manage ..."
No. NIST is yet more pointless Govt, you have responsibility to route around and abandon it. In these non-numerical fields, cryptos often the dumbest, most ignorant, gullible, and easily twisted lot among you. Wake up, route around that crap. Government is no longer desired or necessary for another reason... Prediction Markets will be used to crowdfund massive bounties for breaking the most thought to be secure modern cryptos, and to offer prizes for developing new ones. High places are already reserved in the hallowed halls of crypto history for those who develop and publish uncensorable distributed encrypted anonymous Prediction Markets. Cryptos always prefer working on the cutting edge, quiet revolutions, little projects that will change the world... Have fun :)
