Thank you for this info. I have encountered one consequence of the above
situation very recently that stopped a port from initially functioning:
deskutils/nextcloudclient .  

It gave "The issuer certificate of a locally looked up certificate could not be
found" with the cloud's letsencrypt cert. Installation of ca_root-nss allowed
syncing up to the cloud to proceed via nextcloudclient. Access via web browser
was never an issue.
