I want to add that the dichotomy between "security-minded" and
"non-security-minded" that has been used for rhetoric purposes
has no basis in reality.

Several "non-security-minded" devs (of the kind who have *actually*
contributed a lot of code to CPython) have a pretty good grasp of
cryptography and just don't like security theater.
