Feedback: It would be helpful to note in the Namecheap section that it is probably worth setting DNS-Sleep to something like 300 seconds (you could potentially get away with shorter). I spent well over an hour trying to get one of my certs to renew after the auto-renew process had been failing for weeks. Once that was suggested by ChatGPT (after I gave up trying to find solutions on my own), I tried it and successfully renewed the cert on the first try.

I have multiple ACME certs using the Namecheap validation method and none require that. Any method could require that depending on how the ACME provider is probing at a given time and how the DNS servers are responding, but it isn't anything strictly necessary or relevant to Namecheap.
