Oh, wow, that makes it even sillier. If I want to delete certs from my system certificate store, I can do that, the stdlib should not be making that choice if it's not even packaging the things.

These are intermediate certificates, and the system certificate store on Linux provides no way to tell verifiers such as Go's crypto/x509 that an intermediate is revoked. So Go really has no other option here.
