Right, I think we agree that 6125bis doesn't need to tackle that, but
it does sound like we disagree why.

It seems you're in favor of the "fail fail" scenario, which happens
before reaching 6125bis processing, and is rejected for all names
asserted.

I was arguing for a "fail if used" scenario, where it's only checked
after 6125bis comparisons have happened, and which certificate remains
valid for the other names it asserts.
