> that won't be hidden by https anyway

The only thing that's not hidden are the domain names in the certificate that the server presents.

The rest of the URL is encrypted, along with all data and headers.

Assuming the server uses SNI, the domain name requested by the client is also sent in plaintext. Also, it's exposed anyway in DNS queries.
