If you’re just pushing for WebPKI without “thinking too hard” about perpretrating a system of centralized trust on government-controlled entitites, then you’re following that windows method.
SSL/TLS have very specific benefits. None of which matter that much for reading random articles on the web. So I don’t see the problem with this website doing their own thing to bring attention to the potential issues of the current system.

it is a huge benefit if a man in the middle cannot run scripts on your computer.
there is no problem with that. this could work, with the required patch to firefox, also in the repo.

IMO when reading random articles on the internet you already have to worry about untrusted scripts. I just use NoScript, and if the website requires Javascript I move on

I don’t agree, I think there is a difference in likely outcomes. but even without scripts, you don’t want you article’s content (text, images, statements or names) be falsified by an attacker. Unless you are just reading the article to waste time, and magically what you read will not influence your views.
