Just keep in mind that for crypto, while functional correctness is one (very 
strong) property, it isn’t the whole story. The other important parts are 
cryptographic safety (which for AES is well understood) and security from 
side-channel attacks, which depend on implementation choices and is much harder 
to prove.

Having a functional correctness proof of a well-understood crypto scheme is 
definitely something extremely desirable, I’m just trying to raise awareness to 
the limitations to avoid disappointment and reputational damage – just imagine 
the headlines “‘proved secure’ crypto code hacked”.
