Sad to know. Pasting the ballot for future reference:
---
3.2.2.4. Validation of Domain Authorization or Control
The CA SHALL confirm that, as of the date the Certificate issues, either the CA
or a Delegated Third Party has validated each Fully‐Qualified Domain Name (FQDN)
listed in the Certificate using at least one of the methods listed below.

Completed confirmations of Applicant authority may be valid for the issuance of
multiple certificates over time. In all cases, the confirmation must have been
initiated within the time period specified in the relevant requirement (such as
Section 3.3.1 of this document) prior to certificate issuance. For purposes of
domain validation, the term Applicant includes the Applicant's Parent Company,
Subsidiary Company, or Affiliate.

3.3.1. Identification and Authentication for Routine Re‐key
Section 6.3.2 limits the validity period of Subscriber Certificates. The CA MAY
use the documents and data provided in Section 3.2 to verify certificate 
information,
provided that the CA obtained the data or document from a source specified under
Section 3.2 no more than thirty‐nine (39) months prior to issuing the 
Certificate.
