Fedora openid is using http because long ago when we started offering
openid users were 'http://username.id.fedoraproject.org' and thus were
tied to this identity. If we changed it, everyone using that openid
would be a new different person to whoever they were authenticating. 

Some things to note: 

* openid is old, most places have dropped it.
* There's only a few of our applications still using it and we are
actively working on moving them off this year. 
* ipsilon (our current idp) does support openid, but there has been some
thought of moving to keycloak, and it does not.

For how openid works patrick did a class a long while back:

really these days you want to move to OIDC or the like.
