Apple’s statement: https://support.apple.com/en-us/149555
Indeed!

  On Mac, some command-line tools included with macOS or the Xcode Command Line Tools (including curl, git, python3, ruby, perl, and openssl) check certificates against /etc/ssl/cert.pem. For certificates that chain to a root CA certificate in this file, these tools don't check Apple's block or whether the certificate has been revoked. This file will be updated in a future macOS update. If you use these tools and don't want to wait for the update, you can remove root CA certificates from the file.

I think this is basically related to apple's SIP system protection: they haven't figured out a way to update this quickly and would need to roll this out in like an OS update, which can take a while.

They might need to make a way to do this outside of os updates

Are they just saying "do it yourself"? Can't they just send out an update?
