There might be a lot more reasons, but I don't know them.
The above is what kicked off the update to the HowTo.

From what I remember 2.5.8 browser did not support SSL/TLS just plain HTTP because it did not have gnutls. SSL got enabled I think in 3.x, and TLS on 3.4.1. But might be wrong on that, it's a long time ago.

Speaking of from what I saw in GPL sources I believe 3.4.1 is the first where TLS got enabled (and SSL disabled) but skipped it in favor of 3.4.2.
