Should Gemini clients alert users upon redirect?

Please correct me if I'm wrong.
I believe that the original intent behind discouraging silent redirects
was to avoid dark patterns such as tracking re-directs and short URLs
made with the intent to hide the target (popular for Rickrolling and
shock content).
If my above understanding is correct, then adding a trailing slash
shouldn't be problematic. This should be clarified in the documentation.
