It’s frightening that… NIST is doing the very thing it was established to do back when it was called the Bureau of Standards?

I suspect the fear comes from both seeing NIST as a single point of critical failure, and perhaps also that it is a far less resilient and/or far more vulnerable, institution than may have been previously realized.
