HN doesn't promise me encrypted access to content, so I do not care whether it's encrypted or not. HN is not an online bank.

My bank however obviously must promise me encrypted access, or else nobody would use it.

The browser has no way of knowing whether a site should be encrypted; only that is says it is encrypted.
