If by “people,” you mean “people who rely on HTTPS for security,” then it seems like you’re saying that every hosted software company is getting it wrong. HTTPS is the foundation of the “zero trust” security model as implemented by Google, MS365, Facebook, AWS, etc.

I think it’s more likely you are not considering the full picture of the TLS ecosystem, or are making arbitrary distinctions like “cert transparency logging isn’t actually part of HTTPS.”

Consider that Symantec basically did what you suggest (mis-issue a cert) and not only was it detected and mitigated, they lost their CA business entirely over it.
