In that case, you must believe that key delegation and NS delegation do
the wrong thing.

SSP Designated Signing Domains have been promoted as making it easier
for some domains, particularly small domains, to obtain a first-party
signature.  But that otherwise the end result is the same.  My point is
that it isn't:  the point of responsibility is different for SSP
Designated Signing Domains from the other forms of delegation.
