It only takes one CA to spoil the party, because there's no
presentation to the user of who's responsible for the muckup.

Of course, if he doesn't provide the certificate and proof that he has
the private key to it, I'm going to believe this as an unfounded
attack against the credibility of the PKI system in general.

It's called "put up or shut up".  Unfortunately, since there's no
single "owner" of the PKI, there's no place/person who can directly
claim slander or libel and thus damages, which essentially makes these
types of attacks damaging without recourse.
