I guess what I wanted to say was:
If you are concerned enough to use SSL, you should be concerned enough
to change your certificates.
To continue the suspenders parable, if you are worried enough to wear
suspenders you should replace them if they have been cut in two.
Or take them off - wearing broken suspenders is sillier than wearing none
(SSL costs resources).
