HTTPS-only behavior

I've had "HTTPS-only" turned on since it became available in a recent Firefox update, but its behavior seems very odd. I frequently get the error window that says HTTPS isn't available and gives me the option to cancel or proceed to a non-secure site. But most of the time, the page that opens when I click to proceed is indeed an https page.

Why is the Firefox module seeing these pages as non-https and not just opening them as they are?

Followup point: I realized I also have the "HTTPS everywhere" add-on enabled. Is that the reason https pages are loading after Firefox warns me of a non-https page?
