  • I actually had a concept for a fantasy world, where magicians craft spells much the same way software devs do. So you make your spell and publish it to the ether, and then anyone can invoke it using the magic word (package name), assuming the have the right dependencies available (eye of newt or whatever). But spells might have bugs. So if you used eye of red newt while the spell smith built it with the expectation you had eye of blue newt you might get unintended consequences






  • Duplicating the key removes some accountability. With this set up you can revoke access to only one person, while leaving the access in place for everyone else. If you had a single lock with six copies then a bad actor getting a copy means you’d have to replace everyone else’s keys

    This also means one person can’t take their lock off and replace it with another, and therefore lock out everyone else
