I do wonder if HE is really still needed in 2025.  If one of the protocols
is not available at all, failover is already quick - and if one is broken,
it's useful to actually notice that it is so, and not hide it under
"ah, let's pretend nothing happens and quickly use the other one".

(The web people seem to be unwilling to take the risk that anything could
be slow, because, advertising revenue and such)
