I'm not sure they could. If the http:// http:// URL would have responded with a redirect to https:// https://, the back button would have worked just fine. Instead it responds with a perfectly normal page that then does this:
if (location.protocol == 'http:') location.protocol = 'https:';
Blogspot is such a mess, it's the perfect example of Google not necessarily being technically competent.
