https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-friel-acme-subdomains-02 and 
https://github.com/upros/acme-subdomains/blob/master/draft-friel-acme-subdomains.md
 don’t seem to follow RFC 8555’s convention at all, which could be the 
confusion.

Trampling on another arbitrary domain name – acmeserver.com – is worse; unless 
you can think of an additional domain name to reserve with an update to RFC 
6761 Special-Use Domain Names.

Stick with the RFC 8555 ACME convention. Maybe tweak it to be, say, 
site.example.org and ca.example.com if that is clearer.
Plus a sentence stating the convention used would help.
