Why does subprocess.run redirect to the Python documentation?

I noticed that visiting https://subprocess.run redirects straight to the official Python documentation for subprocess.run(). Is this an intentional Easter egg or just a clever domain setup? I'd like to know whether anyone else noticed it first.

It might look like a browser autocomplete trick, but it isn’t. A request made with curl shows a 301 redirect, with the Location header pointing directly to the relevant Python docs section.

That confirms it—so it’s an actual server-side redirect rather than something Chrome is filling in automatically.

The redirect is real. Visiting both the HTTP and HTTPS versions leads to the Python documentation page for subprocess.run().
