Rotating a signing secret without coordinating a deploy with four integrators, which is what sending several signatures is for.

two signatures, two secrets, both valid for a 30-day
overlap. a subscriber accepts if EITHER matches.
the rotation:
day 0 add the new secret; both are sent
day 30 remove the old one
and nothing on the subscriber's side changes at all
The overlap turns a rotation from an event requiring coordination into a scheduled job, which is the difference between rotating annually and rotating never. It also requires the subscriber to have implemented the multiple-signature check, which is documented and which two of four had not — so the first rotation was also an audit of who had read the documentation.
