Just a note on this bit: "there's a simple hack for functions.php that can doesn't require you to update your database"

...talks about functions.php but the article is mostly focused on wp-config.php

Also "can doesn't" ?

function WP_LOCATION assumes $_SERVER['HTTPS'] returns null if http

At least for IIS, the value is "off" causing redirection to https.

This line should be replaced: $retval = 'http' . ($_SERVER['HTTPS'] ? 's' : null) . '://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $wp_path ;

This line is correct: $retval = 'http' . ($_SERVER['HTTPS'] == "on" ? 's' : null) . '://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $wp_path ;
