Please don't belittle people for not knowing things like this, it's entirely rude and unnecessary. See https://xkcd.com/1053/

It is also wrong for one other funny reason. I have been a security officer for a credit card acquiring business and have been designing cryptographic infrastructure for credit card payment systems. I have also implemented a complete credit card terminal application with magstripe, chip&pin and contactless. I know (or at least known at some point in time) pretty much everything practical there is to know about certificates and I have even been able to parse TLV of X.509 by looking at the hex dump of it.
So that was pretty poor shot at me.
