You can get a wildcard certificate if you go to the bother of setting up DNS-01 validation instead of HTTP-01 validation.

Unfortunately, NGINX does not (yet) support that, so you pretty much have to use Certbot or something resembling it.

True... but in this case the subdomains are controlled by different users (and they have access to the cert). If they had wildcard certs they could spoof each other, so we need one per subdomain.
