The intent was for the topic to be removed from the published help, but leave it in the source GitHub repo for historical purposes (it has a deprecation note).
Problem is that this topic does not display in the help by default, but you can still search for it and access it by URL, and it displays in the table of contents when you find it directly. The other redirects that are set up the same way work as expected, so this needs some investigation to determine why this one is different. Unfortunately, a user found this topic and seeing it caused some confusion.
In the meantime, I have removed the redirect altogether, and the page will now display a 404.

Something has gone wrong with this redirect.
