I think it's more likely we'd see term limits and balanced budget amendments. Possibly even the power for states to override federal laws, with a supermajority.
I'd like to see other things, like the commerce clause returning to its original meaning, but like you said, it's already a high bar.
> To rule out if it was a coding error, I tried to decompress the gzip file with bash via gzip -dc file. bash threw a strange error, “can’t seek file descriptor” when trying to read the file. This error is emitted from bash.c here.
Unless I am reading this wrong, the error would have been emitted by gzip, not bash. There is no redirection or anything here, bash is not even aware of that file.
Yes, it depends on what you mean. The packets themselves aren't a big deal to me, it's more the ability to construct them in arbitrary ways that concerns me.

Much of that could be solved by an implementation having user-controlled policies that whitelist/blacklist sets of algorithms. An implementation could be made with a sane default policy.
Of course, some things ought to just be replaced (S2K).
