Honestly, the only legit case I can think of for why ever use HTTP over HTTPS is for local network stuff. Like, if you're running a Raspberry Pi or some IoT device at home and don't wanna deal with certs.
But even then, tools like Let's Encrypt make it so easy now. Or just use a self-signed cert and call it a day.
Still, HTTP feels like a relic at this point.
