That's not leverage that a CA can use. If half the internet suddenly displays TLS warning interstitials, it doesn't make people mad at the CA, and it doesn't make people mad at their browser: it just _trains them to ignore such warnings_. That's a bad outcome all around, and one that a CA whose core purpose is improving security for end-users cannot condone.
