And in the past, I believe replies have universally disagreed with your
position. Just to be clear, let me restate my position:
Blindly ignoring unofficial fixes to subfiles would allow the PT to certify
files for release that reviewers would generally consider 'broken'.

I could see that. However, this can't be extended to the certified status.
That is, the following example makes no sense to me:
* "Certified! (1 subfile is not certified)"

Yes, I can see how that would help.
I think what would help more would be to offer tools to search and filter the
list of unofficial parts, so people can zero in on the files they need to work
with.
