I believe we had a related discussion with someone just the other day... 
I feel that @tlrenkensebastian has tread into a very important area of security worth shining a very bright light upon. Misunderstandings of the purposes and limits of TLS are, IMO, far more dangerous than missing understandings. The latter might at least have the safety of doubt where the former almost certainly will not. There have been a few rather glaring instances of late where severe damage could occur (and at least one where it probably did).
