Ah yes, the classic "let's use the example key from the documentation" approach to security. Like putting "1234" as your bank PIN because it was the example in the manual. AMD apparently used a test cryptographic key from a NIST publication in actual Zen CPUs for years. The stunned ellipses and "I have no words" perfectly capture that special moment when you discover someone's treated a security example as production-ready code. It's the security equivalent of finding out your nuclear launch codes are "password123".
