Matt, Izar, and Chris take issue with a controversial blog post that criticizes STRIDE as being outdated, time-consuming, and does not help the right people do threat modeling. The post goes on to recommend that LLMs should handle the task. The trio counters these points by highlighting STRIDE's origin, utility, and adaptability. Like any good instrument, it is important to use the right tools in the right context. 

They also touch upon the common misconceptions about threat modeling, the misuse of tools like the Microsoft Threat Modeling Tool, and the benefits of collective threat modeling practices. Throughout, they defend the foundational role of STRIDE in threat modeling, promote the value of including diverse perspectives in the threat modeling process, and encourage looking beyond narrow toolsets to the broader principles of threat analysis.
