This. The 90 day certs of LE are terrible (I hit 1-2 sites a week broken b/c of expired LE certs) and unnecessary, and all part of a bigger trend by big business to control more of the web. LE could be a voice for the user, but the "non-profit" pays their team ~$250K/year so they tread carefully about doing things in the average user's interests.
