Now that the main question is answered, there are sub-questions to be asked:

1. Has any public CA ever encountered a situation where a revocation 
would have been necessary?

1.1 Has any public CA ever had a disgrunted employee with too many 
privileges not revoked on a timely manner?

1.2 Has any public CA ever experienced a corporate reorganization where 
a backup HSM has been lost?

1.3 ...

2. Has any public CA ever suspected a situation where a revocation would 
have been necessary?

2.1 Has any public CA ever had an audit that identified mismanagement of 
signature private key over some extended period of time?

2.2 ...

Regards,
