I agree that mandatory encryption would massively help privacy, integrity and even compliance [1]. However, the main cost is developer-effort involved in keeping track of keys and implementing encryption.

As a small project, ease of adoption has been our most important goal. However, as we work towards better WebPush compatibility [2], I personally absolutely want to promote RFC8291 encryption and make it easy to implement for developers using UnifiedPush, hopefully making it the norm.
