Yeah - these types of weird continuity requirements are all over the place and the reason the consolidation has taken this long. A lot of the effort has been trying to figure out how to replace things tied to old hardware with updated systems, essentially rebuilding things (like the timestamp

Thanks for posting this Curt. We investigated and posted an incident report on Bugzilla. The root cause was related to pre-certs and an error in generating certificates for them. We're fixing the issue (should be done shortly). I figured it'd be good to document here why pre-certs fall under

This string is about Mozilla’s announced plan to remove the EV UI from Firefox in October. Over time, this will tend to eliminate confirmed identity information about websites from the security ecosystem, as EV website owners may decide it’s not worth using a n EV certificate if browsers
