Hi,

It might be - but if you look at the justification for this, the
reason is primarily to safeguard data for 20-30 years. Since the
signature algorithm is not used to safeguard information, it's not a
problem to use EC until we get QCs - since it's only for signatures,
and we still have FS. EC in this usage will only become a problem once
QCs arrive and can then be used to do MITM.

Cheers
