 If an adversary could make a fallback in TLS session, then it'd be
 seamless for the user.

 It's not so good as it seems. 256-bit PK is theoretically strong as
 128-bit AES key, but 112-bit can be broken, and the same for 128-bit in
 the near future. And what's then? Urgently disable P-256 fallback from
 P-384?
