1 year agocertificates can only be obtained for domain names
That is not true, nothing prevents it on the technical side, and even some trusted CAs sell them under certain conditions
It doesn’t make a lot of sense for LetsEncrypt to spend time adding support for such certs, since both a domain name and a cert from another CA are cheaper than buying an IPv4 block
