Description

There's some confusion about what we expect when a HEAD request is redirected with a 303.

The client didn't ask for the payload, so rewriting to GET (even when done correctly with respect to payload handling) seems to be inferior than to stick to HEAD.

From [1421]:

rephrase 303 description (now doesn't imply GET is needed anymore) (see #310)
