In practice, sites see HTTPS as a cost, and a barrier. It doesn't

So, you're saying they don't need encryption, they don't need authentication, they don't need validation, and (I gather) they think their users don't need those things either.

So, why do they bother with https at all?
If it's so much bother, and not offering any protections they need,
why do they bother?  Are they stupid?
