As long as you require a shared secret there will be either extra overhead to maintain it (in a separate password database) or an exclusion of some platforms because of inabilities to generate the shared secret (because they have different crypt()s than we do). Not requiring a shared secret allows monkey-in-the-middle. But the goal here is to do better than nothing at all while not adding any administrative overhead. If you add overhead, people won't use it. SRA is a compromise between security and ease of use. "Compromise" is not a four letter word.
