This honestly is basic security in a number of ways. Separate PKI for every use-case is the standard. Eggs in on ebasket, yadablahwut.

The actual change shouldn't take long for LE to actually do, it's the implication of the thing though. I'd love to see a different tool for enrolling TLS services, or at least a better flow than the existing one.
