I wonder if Cassandra ever said, please, I would like to stop Speaking With The Force Of Prophecy, I would just like my silly jokes to stay silly jokes and not Summon Whatever This Is Into Being, I am just trying to live my life, could I just Do That for a few weeks, and heard Zeus or Athena or whoever answering haha lol no, lmao.

One of the funnier implications of the "It's an older code, sir, but it checks out" line from Star Wars is that credential revocation is a much more difficult problem than artificial gravity, integrated bioprostheses, interstellar faster-than-light travel or hard-AI.

Surprisingly, that line is spoken by _Admiral_ Piett; so - long ago, in a galaxy far far away - fleet-level auth and cert management was important enough that it was one of a flag officer's main duties.
