I was merely suggesting that whatever view Thayer (not you) has on 
these two points was missing from the blog post.  Nothing more, 
nothing less.

The first point is yet another reason why Mozilla provides it's own 
root store rather than relying on the OS one (the main theme of 
Thayer's blog post).

The second point is something closely related that has no rationale 
in the FAQ, only a description of the situation.  The blog post 
actually mentions that those downstreams exist, so it would be 
relevant to mention any policy on this.

And I would highly appreciate if you stopped with your incessant 
bullying and trolling (and not just of me), which has been going on 
for years now.



Enjoy
