Hi Viktor ,
we have used hardcoded certificate information in a piece of code , we don't want to change it often.
There aren't any other reasons for it.

You need to sign a new certificate for the same subject name and public
key.  While it is possible to use an existing certificate as a
"template" the new certificate, it is often simpler to just create a new
one.  Is there any reason why that's not a good option for you?
