I think you make a fair point on the level-of-cert point. I got the first level of their business cert offerings because I needed a wildcard cert - we still don't have the EV green padlock.
I guess I was more trying to convey that it's reassuring to know that Startcom (at least) go to some effort to investigate their verification, and it's not just a bits-in-bits-out process.
This being said, I'm in a business and if I leave and another ops person comes along, the semantics of 'business' versus 'personal' account makes their job a little easier. I'm certainly not an expert in the area of SSL, but from long experience in other fields, it's a pain in the arse managing 'business accounts' that are really repurposed individual/private accounts.
