For obfuscation it's always a copy of the safe with the same contents. Otherwise there is other security involved. Obfuscation is cloneable.

The line is simply what is actually secure (mathematically), and what isn't. A password with sufficient entropy is secure. Not a 16-bit port
Real crypto is secure if the key is kept secret. That isn't "obscurity". Obfuscation isn't secure because you're giving out your code.

And proprietary crypto may be secure but most likely isn't because crypto is hard, and thus should be considered security through obscurity.

Fair points. Thank you for educating me on “security through obscurity”. I didn’t realize the term was restricted to dependence on obscurity
