It was an example. the core isuse is, how can a consumer determine the
log censored itself with a valid reason, versus an attack, compromise,
having been compelled, or for financial gain or any other invalid reason?

Using a hash of a removed cert won't allow anyone to verify the reason
for removal. And clearly the content cannot remain their either. It's
a catch22.
