Transport security is very different from web security. For example, only
some of the resources in a webpage may be opportunistically encrypted with
strong authentication. If there's active content like script that's loaded
without transport security, that can compromise the entire page. Pages
loaded using opportunistic encryption definitely do not deserve the same
security indicator as an https:// page. One might argue that they deserve
something better than nothing, but explaining this difference to users is
quite difficult already, so it seems inadvisable to further muddy the
distinction by introducing a middle ground security indicator.
