Now, to be very clear: there is a chance that even a non-CA
certificate would accumulate trust, since according to MS:
Application reputation for unsigned software is based on
fingerprints while publisher reputation is based on signed
software associated with a code signing certificate.
It's not entirely clear that you absolutely require a real
trustedd CA to get that reputation.
