I think you've convinced yourself that there isn't a better alternative
to the one you've suggested, and so you feel justified in writing such
an aggressive reply to Hubert (which reads to me as "apparently you are
not going to be convinced that you're so very very wrong, have a nice
day").

My take is that RPs should be prepared to validate certs issued before a
certain date using the old DN rules but require SANs in certs issued
after.  This covers the extant very-long-lived certs use cases while
still making progress.

Now, there might be other extant issues, like old RPs that can't be
upgraded.  There's still room for argument.
