Mozilla might well not be around forever, considering the state of their market share. And let's be honest, as long as their main source of funds comes from Google, politically speaking they end up as a fig's leaf around Google's interests. As far as we know, they might take certain decisions about the life or death of any given CA after someone at Alphabet picks up the phone. Maybe they don't do that, but there is no guarantee nor formal process to address this - particularly not in Europe, since all these are US entities.
