This removes the text suggesting that the AS not generate keys. I agree that this is the best practice, but it's just such a standard practice that i think even mentioning the alternative creates confusion.

I don't think this should be removed. To my knowledge, there are enough non-PKI driven use cases to justify this graph.

Maybe we can attenuate the language to make this "acceptable" ?

In what use cases does the AS generate the key pairs?

Maybe we could just strengthen the text to say basically:

"Some service did this in the past. DON'T DO THIS!!!! (really!)"

I misread Ekr's comment in my first review. We actually all agree.
