Also the library he pointed to has only had 33k downloads total. Can you really suggest that as a replacement for one of the most heavily and read crypto libraries on earth? I wouldn't be surprised if OpenSSL had more than 33k programs that use it as a dependency.

I am recommending it as an existence proof that one can construct a usable crypto library in a performant safe language.
