No, we wouldn't, you're right. We'd just replace LetsEncrypt and the ISRG with the security track records and policy integrity of the major DNS providers, many of which are state-controlled, and the largest of which are too important to revoke.
Really hard to understand why that hasn't happened yet!
You can chose under which registry you can register your domain. You cannot choose which (in many cases also state controlled) web PKI certificate authority can sign certificates for your domain name. And Web PKI revocation is a joke that many clients don't check at all and others do using privacy-hostile mechanisms.
But sure, keep spreading FUD like you always do on this topic.
