> DNSSEC could have been fixed, but Web PKI was "good enough" and the remaining problem wasn't sufficiently critical.

People say this about every failed technology. If you have something that could have been fixed at any point in the last 30 years but somehow never has been, usually i suspect its not actually true.

> Further, certificates are issued without strong owner authentication

I dont think DNSSEC would fix this either and quite frankly i dont think its a super important problem to solve.
