OK, I understand that. If X11 is running you use xterm or similar. If
X11 is not running you can do "ssh localhost" on the command line of a
virtual console.

I considered only the live interactive case. Not a script.

Exactly what I meant with "Naively, I wouldn't expect TLS to be
necessary for localhost. When a miscreant has access to a machine,
TLS on a local console connection probably won't help."
