Tell me your not a security expert without saying your not a security expert

Wireguard is not a vpn, there is no usable vpns built on wireguard, is extremely limited primitive that can be used to build one.

I think I never claimed being a security expert. Do you need to be a security expert to state that wireguard as it is not really usable and needs a lot of resources to build something of it and the final result will be worse than openvpn by all metrics except purity from security standpoint?

Wireguard is simple and it works. I don't know what your experience has been but it doesn't reflect mine.

Wireguard is also used by many VPN providers.
