[^key-flag-sharing]: With ECC algorithms, it's impossible to combine {term}`encryption<Encryption Key Flag>` functions with those intended for {term}`signing<Signing Key Flag>`. For example, ed25519 is specifically used for {term}`signing<Signing Key Flag>`; cv25519 is designated for {term}`encryption<Encryption Key Flag>`.

### Algorithm preferences and feature signaling
OpenPGP incorporates significant ["cryptographic agility"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptographic_agility). It doesn't rely on a single fixed set of algorithms. Instead, it defines a suite of cryptographic primitives from which users (or their applications) can choose.
