In the context of the thread, it’s hopefully clear I was not trying to argue they are the only important user, but rather, a demonstration of a practical alternative to deliver this information. That said, on platforms like Apple’s *OS family (mac/i/tv), and, to a lesser extent, Windows and Android, such distribution _is_ system wide, and TLS-using applications, including non-browser, don’t need to take any special action. It’s really only in Linux that there isn’t some form of system-wide capability available, and although Linux remains a significant in this space, it shouldn’t be used to preclude more holistic approaches. >
