Renewing any certificate that requires a manual import is not fun. Why are wildcard certs less fun to manually import than individual certificates?

Presumably one purchases a wildcard for multiple distinct systems.

Using them like that never occurred to me. I was thinking multiple sites on one host or vanity hostnames: dfc.example.com / nullindividual.example.com. etc.

Unless you're running some sort of automated system to churn out vanity host names (like an Azure or AWS would to provide you an OOTB URI), a UCC/SAN cert is a better choice.

More restrictive is better than less restrictive when it comes to certificates.
