What benefit does SSL/HTTPS provide if the data going back and forth is just HTML? (No user names / passwords / etc.?)

I have it set up for my jellyfin server since there is login data.

Not that I won't add it, just didn't know there was a need

From a regular user standpoint pretty much all modern browsers throw up warnings and block the page from initially loading if it's not https, which discourages people from viewing it.
