What is "http://sdkfsdkfjskldfjksldjf.example.com" the URI of?
How about "http://example.com/dsfsdfsdffdfdf" ?
If I try to visit
http://larry1.example.com
and I get a "301 Moved Permanently" redirect to
http://larry2.example.com
should I still consider ...larry1... to be the URL of your website?
It seems to me you only really know you've got the URI of a web page
when you get a "200 OK". These other responses tell you that the URI
you're working with may be a little bit different. And this
realization opens the door to an effective solution to the
long-standing hash-vs-slash problem. The solution may not meet
everyone's intuitions and generalizations perfectly, but it doesn't
seem to break anything.
