As interesting as this thread has been (not!), let me remind everybody
that the cheapest, easiest and most efficient and profitable way
for a Nation State Actor to trojan the FreeBSD code-base, is to
assign an employee to a deniable job, and have them become a FreeBSD
committer.

No amount of cryptography can or will protect against that.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
