</div> <p style="margin: 10px 0 0">This is clearly wrong and probably a bug in the specification, but I still think this is relevant to us as implementers, because it gives a hint about what we must expect others to send when applying “Postel’s principle”. Based on this we decided to allow ““ to be equivalent to “00” meaning “no data and no padding” adding an empty byte array to be concatenated as ConcatKDF input.</p> <p style="margin: 10px 0 0">So if we set aside what is right and wrong, it makes sense to be less restrictive in absence of negative consequences or security threats. In this case I see no benefits from being restrictive and requiring explicit content.</p> </td>
