It's not even the most insane suggestion in the thread. That would be the proposal to require ACME for all certificates. So all your appliances with manual cert installation and devices without direct connection to the internet would break.

Technically ACME supports challenges that work without "direct connection to the internet", eg. DNS.

Better make any certificate expire after 20ms. Slow internet ? Bad luck. /s
