While I’m certainly open to reconsidering it, this is a well known and practiced method by pretty much every website ever. Here's a few high performers doing precisely this (off the top of my head): http://google.com/music → https://play.google.com/music/listen http://microsoft.com/office → https://products.office.com/en-us/ http://microsoft.com/word → https://products.office.com/en-us/word http://apple.com/macbookpro → http://www.apple.com/macbook-pro/ http://amazon.co.uk/kindle → http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00KDRUCJY It does increase the maintenance somewhat if the developer ends up changing an item name. But between the “ What links here”  ( Molot example – the redirects are quite clearly labelled)  function and the Special:DoubleRedirects I’m quite happy to keep an eye on this and to fix anything that rears its head.

What do you think?
