Yes, I am.

On my opinion no: you just installed the engine and the engine just created its 
CA.
In order to trust an https connection to the engine you have to trust its CA 
but you still don't know it cause it's a private one and it has been just 
created on the engine from scratch.

Blindly downloading the engine CA cert and blindly trusting it is not that 
different that simply using http to download the public key: in order to fetch 
it you don't need to send any password or token and being a public key you 
don't need to crypt it by definition so you don't need encryption.
