    The article contains conflicting statements:

    > anyone already pointed at any existing free CA can move to us by changing a directory URL, with no new tooling and nothing to re-architect.

    > We will only issue to clients that support ACME Renewal Information (ARI), standardized in RFC 9773.

    I do not think both can be true.

      That only relies on the (mostly reasonable) assumption that all CAs that don't use ACME charge for the service.
