why is multi-iteration sha-2 less ideal than bcrypt, even if the work factors between the two are calibrated to require the same amount of computation?

the only argument i've heard is that sha-2 can be implemented in specialized hardware (well-funded attacker) that is much much faster than CPU/GPU, whereas this is not as easy for bcrypt?

however, with multi-iteration hashing, you can strengthen the hash further w/o the user having to log in again.

i'm not referring to spain, where delicious tapas are cheap and plentiful, but to the americanized concept where the going rate for 3 bites of food seems to be about $7

i think you're missing that the entire point of "tapas" restaurants is to rip you off in the first place.
