As we discussed above, when it comes down to practical, end-to-end security properties, Quantum Key Distribution

removes trust in the hardness of particular mathematical problems (good!), but increases trust in the physical

integrity of the transceivers of the QKD link (bad!). In scenarios where the communicating parties are all located

key rate requirements---this added trust is of no consequence because the communcating parties' hardware must be trusted

in either QKD-assisted or purely classical setups. However, this trust requirement becomes a burden as soon as at least

one party is too far away (or higher secret key rates are required), as now physically trusted relays become necessary.

Extrapolating to practical deployments, we can make two predictions. First, as QKD only solves key distribution, but the

actual data transfer still happens through normal off-the-shelf telecommunications components in QKD networks, there is
