i'm uncomfortable offering an explanation for this recommendation
(i don't think security is a concern here. maybe interoperability?)

And use Bob's real fingerprint.

it seems confusing to imply that bob will necessarily distribute a third-party certification, this is only true some of the time 2023-11-25 15:43:24 +01:00

clarification: "append" implies "stored at the end of a file." this is not generally true for these two cases.
I now realize that this is weird: we're claiming that certificates are "append only". However, the meaning of that term, in OpenPGP is ... not about the location of additions. Rather it just means "we only get to add packets, not remove them". Regardless of packet order.

Improve on original text: "Elements" encompass both "components" and "signatures." Regarding malicious addition, we care about both.
Additionally, "typically" reads confusingly weak to me, erring on the side of "maybe too strong" with "will" seems better.

clarify enumeration of legitimate unbound packets
This is supposed to be a list of legitimate uses. I've removed the elaboration of the flooding problem, and replaced it with a link to an elaboration in ch4.
