I don't see any reason why we would want to take that risk. It's not easy to spin up a new CA, but it's also not rocket surgery. Why should we prefer to re-admit a previously distrusted organisation over taking a chance with someone new and untried ? Is there a shortage of organisations interested in this role ? I don't think so. Running a publicly trusted CA is not a right which was temporarily suspended, it's a privilege you might earn, Mozilla should operate with a default assumption that losing this privilege is permanent.
