The infrastructure scale is not even in the same ballpark, or even neighbourhood.
Besides the fact that you can't just "make" internet from a coal/petrol/etc generator somewhere nearby.
Imagine a ship's anchor damaging a cable carrying a couple megawatts of power (this happens frequently to the undersea fibre optic cables, and even those are a nightmare to repair).
There's a subtle difference. One is designed to release that energy in a fraction of a second in a frangible metal casing, the other is designed to release it over a number of hours. Yes, batteries can go wrong, just like any tech, but comparing them to hand grenades is just ludicrous.
As far as I can tell, there's a fair bit of difference between "decreed a crime" and "we've backed up a truck to the DC, and physically seized your data, do as we say if want it back"
In that case, you'd understand the difficulties of providing a product or piece of software out of the box with valid certificates without user setup, as you've done (without running all user data through offsite servers).
I too have a working reverse proxy setup or few. I certainly don't expect something using a "localhost site" to come with valid certificates. Unless they somehow get a valid cert for https://localhost
Edit: apologies for the assumption, I didn't realise that you weren't the guy I originally replied to. I'm new around here.
