Can you tell me where exactly this information is present upon on
which a client (software or human) should make such a decision? If
you can't, how can this in any way affect a client's decision at
all?<br>

<pre wrap="">Since we already allow for a delay in issue of status information it seems perfectly acceptable to assume that cert status is valid within a short time window of issue.</pre>

Those are two completely different things - positive or negative
status information doesn't equal the same thing as certificate
issuance and we can't make the assumption above. Status information
is one thing and certificate issuance another. <br>

I made my point on that already, so I spare you my repeating replies
on this... :-)<br>
