On: eMudhra to exit global SSL/TLS certificate business

I have to imagine that the 3 bit numbers were slots/indexes on the HSM, and rather than actually retrieving the key(or maybe it did), the slot number got used as the key. I can't otherwise imagine how they'd generate such low number keys...

I have not read up on all of this, but I would have guessed they were artifacts created and validated by a testcase. "testcase 1-8".

The key '4' was just the smallest key, there was a set of keys all below 300

Dude, use nice, round numbers. The keys were all below 256!

They're still safe from attack by quantum "computers", so what are you worried about?
