Why is a new signature (of either type) more important than an old one?
=====================

in many respects, a new self-sig is meant to replace and supersede an older self-sig, not augment it. although it can be argued that old self-sigs serve a historical purpose, i would argue that they just take up space and rarely serve any useful purpose.
