AFAIK, this is true of nginx also and from what I've heard in the past, they see no reason to change it.

I can't find it now, but I'm sure they had pretty compelling benchmarks that showed that with keepalive & low-latency networks, performance wise, there's little, if any, performance difference.

http2 backends support is on the roadmap https://trac.nginx.org/nginx/roadmap - so you can expect it to be implemented.

The reason would be so that the backend can take advantage of H2 features.
