(This is not clear at all. I think it rests on a number of false assumptions, but those are quite hard to describe in a quick email, so I'll skip that here.)
As (1) is the definition of a certificate (modulo the fact that applicability goes beyond just web sites), it is as clear to me as any derivation from definitions. That you state it is not clear, omitting any argument, is in no way convincing.
