Exactly this is how I came to trust e.g. the rpm signing keys in the first place: there was no other basis but to trust the master keys in a "no news is good news" situation where everybody trusted them and no problems arose. Now there is news - seemingly bad news - and there are problems. Trust is easily lost but hard to restore.
