Inspite of port 8080 handling HTTP traffic rather than HTTS why isn't it still blocked by majority of the firewalls or ISPs? Is it because there's less traffic there or due to the fact that 8080 is not a standard port for HTTP requests like port 80 is?

I think both of your reasons are valid. Port 8080 is typically not associated with malicious attacks because it's not a well-known port for HTTP traffic like port 80.
