I'm personally in the "encrypt all the things" camp. I fully support a switch to https only.

But it should be a default, not a "let's add stuff people might want to enable later". Either all in or all out.
Perhaps that's the problem.

There has been a movement to blindly "encrypt all the things" even for stuff that may not require it ? Why ? I have no problem with what benefits from it, but if you look certain scenarios that's not really something necessary, so in that sense I always like the Keep It Simple principle. I don't see that OpenWrt really requires HTTPS enabled by default for most usage scenarios really, but I would be glad to be convinced the contrary.

Again, I think that if it doesn't impose much extra space consumption and it does not come enabled by default it may be a good middle term if there are significant cases, although not majority, that may choose to enable and use it.
