# Override the status to match caniuse. This is the same as one would get by
# computing the status from api.SubtleCrypto.encrypt/decrypt/sign/verify, except
# for Edge 12-18 where BCD has partial_implementation due to some unsupported
# algorithms. However, the supported algorithms have changed over time, so it
# seems more fair to treat it as supported in Edge 12-18.

I filed mdn/browser-compat-data#27669 for this. It seems like BCD ought to break out all the algorithms as separate subfeatures. Not sure how much, if at all, you wish to prioritize such a clean up.

Good idea to break it into subfeatures, that would help us here. But doing so would require confirming support in all browsers, which would be a lot of work...
