There is an argument HTTP/2 was created by CDNs for CDNs (reverse proxies)

For sure it was not created for things like the web of things. Around 2015 I had so much hope for it to be usable for embedded devices (like using compression with preshared ducts), but at least at the time the complexity of http/2 were overwhelming, with the actual improvements underwhelming.
