Also technology wise its not 2022 everywhere, if you know what i mean. Many poorer nations suffer from inferior infrastructure, which could mean slower loading / processing times for https based webpages.

I remember reading an article along these lines a few years ago when arguing against using https absolutely everywhere.

Nope. SSL was pretty okay performance-wise 15 years ago. So no, we don't know what you mean. 'Poorer' infrastructure excuse is void. If we cared about performance we'd get rid of almost all javascript, not https.

Yep. Also http2 more than makes up for the performance difference. And http2 requires TLS.
