Research direction

Start by reading the specification text around its existing uses of “HTTP” and “https://” to find the appropriate location for the note. Done means adding a non-normative explanation that distinguishes HTTP as a protocol from https: as a scheme, while preserving the specification’s terminology and formatting.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
