I had the same impression.

Nor do I.

The complaint was that he could connect even if he didn't
have a valid client certificate.

That would mean that the connection was not established
with SSL. I want to see the pg_hba.conf to see if there is
an entry that allows him to connect without using SSL,
like a "host" entry.
