The differences between xpack.security.http.ssl. and xpack.http.ssl. settings

What are the differences? The only thing I know is that one is for security settings and the other appears in watcher configuration. I need further details.

The former correspond to settings regarding TLS setup for the http layer of Elasticsearch, so incoming requests to Elasticsearch on the http layer. See https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/security-settings.html#http-tls-ssl-settings

The latter correspond to settings regarding the TLS setup for the http client the Watcher uses to make http requests, so outgoing requests from watcher. See https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.5/notification-settings.html
