| Apr 24, 2015 at 21:34 | comment | added | Benjamin S | I think it would be best to look at the problem from the perspective of URL changes and URL redirects. Changing URLs happens with websites, but it is important from an SEO and user perspective (user clicks old link) to have redirects in place so that the old links take users and bots to the new URL. With proper redirects in place, the question of user behavior is a non-issue. | |

I'm pleasantly surprised by sites that give me what I want, and a little disappointed by sites that don't, but it's never been a deal breaker as I can recognize it's a power-user quirk. It depends on your target audience and how deep and polished you want to take your UX. | |
