> In the context of the debate, I do view the statement that I cited as a concession, because I don't think that you've said this so unambiguously before. (But perhaps you have said this before and I missed it.)
Frankly, it seems to me that the two of us indeed have rather different interpretations of what has been said.
Look, would I use LE and *say so openly*, if I hated it or was waging a holy war against it? Hardly.
Maybe I can help to deescalate by making my basic statement in a different way:
I'm neither against LE nor against commercial CAs. I see value in both. But I'm against the extreme positions like e.g. "Only LE is a reasonable CA. Anyone who uses a commercial CA is stupid" or like "commercial CAs have/provide NO value at all".

Okay, thanks, this statement is helpful. I'm not sure that you've formulated it in this way before, so I find it helpful that you have now
(I'll leave it at this)

bhw hosting might want to at least mention what kind of cert they offer for $19/year to avoid appearing clueless in their advertising..
