Sometimes when I have a very limited connection on mobile, nothing helps the web and no pages would load over https, even if it's just plain HTML. And if the connection drops, then it almost certainly won't recover and full page reload is necessary.
Other protocols may work much better in such conditions, for example popular messengers can send and receive text, metadata and blurry image previews just fine. In some cases even voice calls are possible, but not a single website would load ever.
I think HN crowd won't notice the changes. I hope that the protocol would improve experience for smartphone users without reliable 4G connection.
