I'm sorry you do. It's not something that can be phrased without
risking offense, though.

You miss the point (and trimmed the relevant footnote, to boot). I am
not qualified to criticize the C-level programming, because I assume
there are some subtle issues in handling crypto beyond using strncat
instead of strcat.
Therefore, I'm in a position where I have to delegate the work to you.
That being so, and being unable to verify that you can dive like a
duck, I'd at least like to hear you quack like one.

Where did I criticize your motivations? I'd like to correct my words
if I gave that impression. I certainly didn't intend that.
