You might want to give this a read, then re-read my original post. I never said there wasn’t a backdoor, just that it would be stupid.

Just because I mentioned one scenario and didn’t mention another, very specific scenario doesn’t mean I ruled it out completely. And yes, that is a straw man, see Nutpicking.

You’re also giving them the benefit of the doubt and assuming that the encryption is implemented properly. Which is something the NSA has botched before and could very well be used to ground allied aircraft during joint operations. Which, again, would be stupid.
