The magic isn't Let's Encrypt per se, but the ACME protocol seems to be something traditional CAs should be getting behind.

They are! https://letsencrypt.org/2017/06/14/acme-v2-api.html
From the URL:
Second, ACME v2 was designed with additional input from other CAs besides Let’s Encrypt, so it should be easier for other CAs to use. We want a standardized ACME to work for many CAs, and ACME v1, while usable by other CAs, was designed with Let’s Encrypt in particular in mind. ACME v2 should meet more needs.
