How is that enforced as it was billed as certificates are not valid unless published, yet it is obvious certificates for a private CA are not being published and are treated as valid?

As I understand it there are various interested parties who monitor to make sure that the default CAs in the root store publish to the certificate transparency before they sign anything. A violation would be grounds for immediate removal. None of this applies to a private CA you add to your own store.
