Nice write up.
Two points only briefly covered:
- Because many open source OS distributions use the Mozilla root store,
replacing the Mozilla root store by relying on the OS root store would
cut off its own feet.
- Some participants in the community actively refuse to support use of
the Mozilla root store in other open source initiatives.
Enjoy
