You're not crazy. HTTP is commonly part of standard libraries nowadays.
Only in languages that do not consider long term support before adding stuff to the standard library.
There really isn't a good reason to add things like protocols that change significantly over time in a standard library.
I doubt TCP/UDP or basic HTTP requests will change much, but I guess it depends on how high-level the API is.
HTTP has changed quite a bit from HTTP/1.0 -> 2.0.
