What's All This Stuff About Germanium Diode Leakage?

So LMK if I'm re-hashing here but the leakage is the failure of the diode to act as an open circuit when "off" ?

AND

The series resistance is the failure to act like a short when it is on?

I would think Vf is easily worked around by scaling input amplitude into the diode circuit.
