I'm a little disappointed in the amount of time spent on the XZ attack. The title and it starting off with some good history made me think this was going to be more of a retrospective, looking into the issues that created the solutions used today.
It seems to be just calling out the solutions and how they would interfere or did interfere with a given attack, where XZ is most commonly used as an example.
