Hmm. So Safari is still having issues. It is able to load the root as
www.paulbeard.org but not without it. And the link to wordpress explicitly
uses www but it gets rewritten without and then fails for lack of a secure
connection. I'll need to track down how that rewriting is happening. Who
knew Safari was so rigorous?

This is the unadorned/non-www stanza: do I even need that in the year 2022?
