It is not ideal that we depend on pycose, even if it's just for tests, because:
Luckily, python-cwt (https://github.com/dajiaji/python-cwt) suffers from neither problem, and offers substantially better coverage of COSE-related RFCs as well. It looks like a better bet for tooling and testing, and since it is released regularly, something we can hopefully contribute to - for example COSE Receipt verification.
