Because the protocol is now significantly more complex that HTTP 1.X and intermediate network services (proxies, etc) would not play well with a unencrypted stream. TLS guarantees that the intermediaries are either fully terminating the client connection and proxying to the server in whatever protocol it supports, or not manipulating the stream at all because it's unable to know the contents therein. |
