"Woops, we made a rule change that causes them to be inconsistent, but they are still valid, and you are bad for continuing as you were"
Why isn't CA/B focusing on fixing the inconsistent rule versus trying to berate certificate issuers?
One thousand words on Entrust acting "maliciously" without respect for the (inconsistent) rules, and not a single word on how CA/B will rectify the rules, or indeed if. Just this brushed off acknowledgement, "well, they did accidentally make a rule change that caused inconsistencies".
