Because when your browser is configured to use a proxy. It sends
completely different protocol requests.

It wraps the FTP up in HTTP headers for Squid to understand whats going
on. For HTTPS it does not perform any encryption, or if Squid is
configured to allow it, it uses a single encryption key belonging to Squid
for all requests.

When configured to connect directly to the internet, the browser sends FTP
protocol requests across multiple ports simultaneously in a mixture of
binary and ASCII. And securely encrypts all traffic to HTTPS servers with
unique encryption keys for each destination.

Squid is not designed to intercept the FTP tangle. And the HTTPS
encryption is specifically designed to prevent quiet interception. Nobody
wants anyone playing with their private encrypted details without them
knowing.
