What should a Alternative to LetsEncrypt offer

Question

In the name of resilience, what should a true alternative to Lets Encrypt offer for you.Besides the following basic requirements: - feature complete (offering both simple domain and wildcard support via ACME) - registered non-profit - not inside the US (simply based on resillience) - like lets encrypt community driven

There's already other CAs that (optionally) use ACME to issue. As I understand it from the mod_md readme [1], Buypass basically works (without must staple), Sectigo and ZeroSSL work too, but require an account to be setup.
Are these true alternatives? If not, why not? I don't know where these companies reside.
