This is still Alexey's ballot, of course, but ...

I like the change you're making, but the part that confused me is that in
English, multiple negatives don't work well - so, "not without TLS"
simplifies to "with TLS" in common usage.

Are you using "not without TLS" to mean "TLS usage required", or something
like that?
