I would be shocked if pages actually fully followed > that. :( I wouldn't be surprised if a good chunk of these pages were generating urls on the fly, or have some middleware "simplifying" urls when you request a page, so that actually requesting /a.html vs /b.html generates the "correct" urls, but starting on /a.html and pushState()'ing to /b.html doesn't update all the urls accordingly, so we can't just rebase them all. (But yeah, also a good bit are broken anyway.) ~TJ
