Well yes, but the whole point of this thread is servers which don't include intermediate certs in the regular handshake. The article says about this: > The website worked in other browsers because browsers silently cache intermediate TLS certificates that they've seen before, in addition to being willing to download them under the right circumstances. I understood that as "some clients can recover from that situation by either caching the certs from a previous handshake or somehow downloading them on their own".
