Major architecture and integration challenges exist to rationalize web ad serving and the offline experience (particularly around impression reporting). This isn't simply us taking something away: if the want to opt into Service Worker integration, SSL/TLS is likely not the largest hurdle. In fact, I suspect it's a relatively minor point.
