... and maintaining/updating a trusted CA list is trivial in almost all other environments. There is no recompilation involved or reliance on developers needed or anything, just update the global trust list, restart the browser, and you're done. This is very different than saying/asking "hey, there's a vulnerability in the browser when you execute this javascript code, it needs to be fixed ASAP!" Trusted CA lists are equally important and can be (again, in most normal cases) easily managed by end users.

That's too much work just for a device I don't use regularly. I was just hoping to get something that would work anywhere (not just on my local network) while not being subjected to possible MITM attacks.
