  The details do matter. I would argue that's especially true, typically, among designers.
  Doesn't it bug you that they've chosen to keep the "www" in the URL too?

    That 'www.' will just be a https redirect won't it? So the certificate is for www. rather than a wildcard for the domain.

      Just saying: DN could structure their URL however they want, and they've decided to keep the www in there. ¯\(ツ)/¯

        Keeping the www can be important.

        Thanks for sharing! I didn't realize there were caching and serving switching difficulties for bare domains.
