Looks pointless to me. Because choosing between turning your resource to user with http or https is not about speed. There are other considerations on the first place.

Many sites avoid going all https because of the - sometimes alleged, sometimes real - performance loss.

It's not pointless because many sites don't care about privacy/security so speed is more likely to sell them on TLS/SPDY.

Thank you, you are right from the marketing point of view.
