In that it doesn't encourage CAs to sell certificates, true.

But it does mean you'll accept as true any certificate given to you,
without full validation of identity and/or fingerprint.  That it has
some additional steps to alert if a certificate suddenly changes doesn't
change the fact the fundamental behavior of TOFU is exactly what Mike
has a problem with about TLS.
