On the big scary old internet, sure. But browsers and HTTP are used for a lot more than public facing websites.

Web servers also run on ESP8266 or similar chips with minimal resources, or from a few line of JS I've cobbled together into a single-purpose service. I do not want to be forced into managing certificates for these cases, and as they're all running on my LAN I'm not worried about the 133t hackerz.
