The TLS section said you could reach the daemon "through HTTP rather than SSH in a safe manner". That's HTTPS.

Also fixed the client-modes list: --tls does not use the system CA pool. The CLI still loads --tlscacert (default ~/.docker/ca.pem) and errors if that file is missing.

The section is about TLS. Calling it HTTP was the opposite of the point.

The client modes list said --tls used the public CA pool. The CLI
always loads --tlscacert (default ~/.docker/ca.pem) and errors if
it's missing.
