Would it go away if there was less of it?

Can you imagine ways there could be less of it?

If there was something dramatically better for every use case (which is not IPFS) it would slowly displace HTTP in new deployments and there would still be HTTP for a very, very long time. The Web we have, in other words, isn't going anywhere.
