Even then, you are assuming that the person whose ID you saw
is still in control of the key that you signed. That may well be the
case, but it is still a weaker assurance (what if someone got hold of
the old pass phrase, created a new key, signed with the old key, and
sent you a mail asking you to sighn the new key?)
