The other side of this debate is attempting to treat
OpenPGP algorithm IDs like TLS ciphersuite IDs, which attach all of the

If someone is sowing discord, I presently believe that it is not the GPG
maintainers. If someone is trying to weaken the OpenPGP protocol, I
believe it to be the parties pushing for less flexibility, where OpenPGP
has historically allowed wide flexibility.
In my understanding, the others argue that being less flexible is a benefit.
I cannot judge who's right. My point is, an attempt should be made to
negotiate, rather than insisting on one approach being better. It
doesn't seem that important.
For example, if the GnuPG developers said, that this detail is really
important to them, and that it is the only remaining disagreement
regarding the use of PQC with v4 primary keys, then the GnuPG developers
could reach out of the others, and suggest to change this detail in
order to reach a common specification.
That's what I suggest to do.
Thanks,
Kai
