We could use this as a heuristic here:

notSecure := r.TLS == nil
if notSecure && !mount.allowInsecureHTTP { // important that this is done before stripPrefix
redirectHTTPToHTTPS(w, r) // come back when you have TLS, bro

Counter-argument: this allows downgrade attacks by a MITM attacker removing the header

Further analysis required
