What app store? Which OS? Do you now suddenly have to write software for all OSes to install the certificate? Something that you didn't even have to think about doing before. The entire reason you went for a webui to begin with.

this is only in the pure local no internet case. with internet it’s a no-install plug in and done

you don’t need to install any certificates in any case. the server just needs to validate the client is well signed

That is a generalization. You certainly do with many networked appliances. And I prefer this, since that means connectivity with the device is not dependent on some cloud service. And that some cloud service can't control my appliance.
