Sorry, that's patently false and flies in the face of reality.

That is patently false. The problems isn't caused by not controlling the client. The primary problem is that they don't control the network, which means each and every single node between client and server, and HTTP reduces or eliminates the chance that one of those nodes doesn't cooperate.
