That makes sense, and lack of support for Srp is likely why I remained
Legacy_Auth, Srp

Yes but the problem is the other way. People will likely migrate first using
legacy then upgrade switch to Srp. In an ideal world upgrade to Fb 3.x would
be done using Srp and no legacy. But I suspect many will likely do
Legacy_Auth, Srp to ensure old stuff still works. Till it can be migrated.

I come across many still running older versions of Firebird, 1.x 2.x. Happy to
see 2.5 if anything. Though all my stuff has been 3.x for some time. I will
proceed with migration to Srp now that Jaybird 3 has support for that plugin.
