While that may be, this preference should not be assumed. Even if the
current behavior (failing to start under said circumstances) is made the
default, I would prefer this to be a configurable behavior.

My post's primary purpose was to underscore the fact that Apache fails
*silently* under the key/cert mismatch scenario.

Perhaps with a sufficiently high log-level this error would be revealed.
But even if that is so, such a critical failure should be logged
regardless of the setting.

Thank you,
