There isn't a HTTPS version of the site so you get dropped into the default vhost for their hosting provider, DreamHost.
DreamHost could automatically issue LE certs for their customers but that's not how they do things and don't enable it without customer approval.
It is impossible for DreamHost to not give you an error in this case. You connected directly to port 443 with a name that they don't have a certificate for. They could just close the connection but I don't think that would be an improvement on the situation.
