I would say that this is true for protocols, tls have been significantly improved by dropping support for many different algorithms.

But its not obvious that the same is true for a library.

The RustCrypto project breaks each algorithm into its own crate, while botan implrments everything.

Its not obvious to me that one approach is clearly superior to the other.
