Done…

One point I made there is that it is all very well telling the IoT developers what they should have done after the fact. But we are not telling people what they should be doing instead today.

Probably we should be telling CAs to set up a set of roots specifically for embedded devices which are going to be difficult or impossible to upgrade and for IoT developers to use them.
