Oh, I see, after finding the information accidentally: Hardly any boards can use HTTPS requests. I wish this fact had been written onto the http.request documentation. Now the information can only be found here: https://www.espruino.com/Internet#https and nowhere else.
Well, I experienced a moment of re-evaluation at this point. In private (unsecure) projects, I think http may work, though.
Anyhow, after such a good start I had, this was somewhat disappointing.
