But if you're using ObsTCP instead of HTTPS (because
you just want to flip the bird to mass surveillance,
not set up a heavyweight authenticated session),
you have port 443 available, right?  As long as
store.example.com and irc-logs.example.com are
on different IP addresses, why not borrow 443?
(Some people put sshd on it.)
