As far as I can tell, there aren't any downsides, and it's a good fallback if for some reason we have a cert problem and everyone wont be able to view the site because "THIS CONNECTION IS UNTRUSTED"

Actually new Firefox, and soon if not already Chrome and then inevitably other browsers now show a big "THIS CONNECTION IS UNTRUSTED" warning on http.   That was actually one of the many reasons to do this.

Do you have a source for that? I believe that is incorrect. AFAIK that warning shows when you attempt to use https and the site has an invalid cert. I use the latest firefox and never get that warning on http.

I like being able to cache my webpages. My internet is slow as it is especially in my area, having to always load the page isn't really something I'd fancy.

Security over performance, in my case I'd prefer performance.

but my browser doesn't support nginx 

A standard apt-get upgrade pulled in a new minor release of nginx, which for some reason removed spdy and replaced it with http2, so now we have full http2 support for free.

Enjoy!
