Bad guys may have some loosely registered business. That argument is 
ridiculous. And really bad guys get their certificates at places where 
no documents are required.

Take a look at:

https://support.certum.eu/en/code-signing-required-documents/

Al least the "standard code signing" does explicitly mention 
individuals. Ask their support what documents are required for EV 
certificate.

Hint: at https://www.sslmentor.de/ssl/code-signing there are lower rates 
for the same certificates.
