WPS could have been fine, in that it would have forced an online attack that 
took an infeasible amount of time. 

It just didn't accomplish that.

My thinking is that they'll get this property back into WPS with some sort of 
blinding of the half-break state, but I haven't dug into the vuln enough to be 
sure.
