So you are suggesting that we should state the goal, and let the CA work
out how to achieve it? That makes sense.

I agree with Nick that transparency is important.

Is there room for an assessment of risk, or do we need a blanket
statement? If, say, a CA used short serials up until 2 years ago but has
since ceased the practice, we might say that's not sufficiently risky
for them to have to stand up and migrate to a new cross-signed root. I
agree that becomes subjective.
