In the time it took you to write this reply you could have set up an auto-renewing certificate for your site with let’s encrypt. Or you could have pressed a button and have it served behind cloudflare.
The nuance of if encryption is really required in this specific case is pointless when it is so easy and readily available. The effective direction becomes “just blanket serve everything over HTTPS” because there isn’t much downside.
