It was interesting to see this in the Readme. > Kindly remind that sometimes the HTTPS certificate is expired, you may get some NOT SECURE warning

I thought let’s encrypt removed all the friction that such worries were a thing of the past. Any reason people still manually do this and worry about it?

Let's Encrypt issues DV (domain-validated) certs, some people need OV (organisation-validated) certs. But you're right that Let's Encrypt can cover a vast majority of usecases these days.
In practice, for production, it's best to leave it out to separate component, especially if you might end up having to run with customer-supplied certs
