Can you see how to use a test vector that provides (seed, public key, message, µ, signature) to test a deterministic signing API that does (seed, message) → (signature) or a key generation API that does (seed) → (public key)?
Noted cryptographer D. J. Bernstein can't, certainly in good faith.
*sigh*
I jest, but refuting this FUD takes real resources we could spend so, so, so much better. It'd be sad if it wasn't so harmful.

@filippo@abyssdomain.expert wait let me understand. he claim that if he change a line of code, and don't run the project's test, then you have critical bugs?
